I got quoted 703.48 for 215/40/18 Dunlop SP FM901 tires (4, mounted and balanced)

and 734.75 for 215/40/18 Nitto Neo Gen's

does this price seem really high to anybody else??

Thats high... but not really that ridiculous. You figure if you paid 150 a tire thats already 600. I know I paid 135 each for pirelli p nero same size without mounting.

Tire rack is 113/tire on the dunlops
I think shipping is about 60, so thats 512 plus about 60 mounting.
I'd say 700 is just a wee bit high.

Dunlop SP FM901 i just got rid of these tires, not bad tires. If you get them give them a few miles to warm up, cus i could spin these tires very easy when they were cold and thats sad considering the torqe our cars have. btw i had them in 215/45/17
