Cheap Place to Get Tires?

Well I finally decided on the tires Im going to buy. The Toyo Proxies T1-S, they are totally bomb as hell...and I've sat in cars that have them and wow talk about sticky icky. Anywayz the cheapest I can find per tire is about $95. I was wondering if anyone know of a place with better price.

Thanks,
Boggie1688

I think Im going for 195/ 60 / 15. Thats the stock ex tire size. I dunno how wide of a tire I can actually put on. Do you think 205 will fit? I want something wider cuz they are quite skinny. As for the number 60...not exactly sure what that means. Someone was telling me it has something to do with the sidewall....soo if someone can actually give me a better understand that would be nice. I dunno what going above 60 or below 60 would do.

They definitely have the 195 or the 205. But they don't have side walls of 60, only around 50 and 45. But thats fine. Only problem is I can't find them for cheap!
