Thanks to all for the responses.
I found a local shop that will mount, balance, and dispose of old tires for $40 
for the set.  I had used this shop many years in the past, but in recent years, 
I had found a good shop just about a mile from the house.  Unfortunately, the 
shop close to the house has continued to jack up their prices.  They even want 
$2.50 a whack for tire disposal.  Yep, thats $10 to chunk the corded ones.
I just ordered some Kumhos from the Tire Rack, and the other shop was listed as 
a recommended installer.  When I got their price, it was a no brainer.  I'm 
having the tires drop shipped to my new best tire shop.
The thing I've learned around here is that you can pay from $40 to $70+ to have 
tires mounted, balanced, and disposed.  I just had to shop around a bit.
Thanks,
