Understood that cost is going up, but $16 for a pair of tires is crazy, when your others ie barcodes are like $11.
Re: shipping, understandable you don't ship out as much as amain or other big dealers. For a pair of front and rear dirt webs I was quoted $14 for ground, $16 for priority.
For two sets of tires that is super duper high shipping costs, I ship things often and the rates aren't anywhere near that, for such small/light items.
