Buy a new set of rims ($50-$60 a piece for most cars) and have that tire shop install the tires on the rims only. Then find a buddy who likes beer, buy him a case, and have him install the tires on your car.

It saves you around $120 each season for a full tire swapover, and only takes 30 minutes.

I have 2 sets of rims, 1 for my All Seasons and 1 for my Winters. I have a underground parking spot, so a nice, warm, easy place to change my tires!

Tires are simple enough to change yourself, you just have to have the proper tools and lug nut tightening information.
