No need to flap around having a spazz attack just because somebody had to explain the basics of how a business works.
It's a 10 minute job, I think you're overestimating the time it takes to mount and balance one loose tire. We used to charge $60 for a set of 4 on the car 20 years ago, the idea that job is $300 today is absurd.
