I went to my local Tires Plus to buy some tires one day the car was in the shop for all of 10 min the guy comes out and hes like oh you need tie rods, ball joints, and a hub bearing, with the tires and an alignment its going to cost about $1,600. I look at their estimate and see they want to charge me $100 a piece for the tie rods, $250 a piece for the lower control arms, and another $175 for the hub bearing and something like $400 for labor. I looked at the guy and said no just the tires. I can buy all the stuff myself and install it for less than what you want to charge me for labor.
