Default new tire install

going to buy some conti dws06' for my new s3. it will be in on the 26th. want to bring the tires to the dealer to install and replace the summer oems. they want 169.99 to swap and install. yes I know theres labor charges but DAMN. should I just go to townfair tire and have them price match tire rack or is there something I am missing?

yes I have no need for the summer tires. I would have specified all seasons but then audi would have limited the top speed to 130 like they always do. no intention of doing 155 but the next owner might.

Just look for a reputable local tire shop that can do the install.
