I was just curious on the mark up on tires, especially tires like Hoosiers, Kuhmos, and Goodyear racing tires. I am sure its nothing like electronics or jewelry.

There is certainly a lot of money to be saved for the smart tire buyer. Since I'm willing to run the stock tire size on my Duramax pickup (unlike everyone else that wants the big cool looking ones) I'm able to get take-offs from new trucks for $40 to $100 each. New load rated tires for the Dmax are over $200 each. So that gives me a little more cash to put into race tires for the SS, LOL.
