I think I might have done the 7/12 part twice though when I got to $1.47. But yeah, point remains, despite the irony of me calling people dumb and then doing questionable math.

I wish it was $1200 for 10 years. I got 3 sets of tires (two sets winter) in the last two years and it's closer to $1500-2100 for 5-6 years after labour, TPMS and whatever is necessary for the tire excluding wheels and storage. That comes out to a wee bit over $300-350 per season total, but it's still well worth the cost.

I had a similar experience. The Goodyears felt like an all weather tire at best. I wouldn't do a non-studded Goodyear ever again. I'd buy a tire above or below the Goodyear if a decent set on the same tier wasn't available.
