Need help on buying tires
I have 2005 C230 K and have a unfixable flat on the front tire. the car is two years old and has 24000 miles on it.
I am thinking about changing both front tires and and looking at toyo proxy 225/45 for a total $139 each from TownFair tire. on the other hand the dealer ship is charing $198 for continental.
I am tempted to get the tires from the dealership, however Wanted to know if anybody has any experiance with the toyos. any help is appreciated.
thanks
