You're right, I need to check their math. I should've written everything down when they called. They wanted something like $65 for the tie rod and another couple bucks for the sleeve. Keep in mind they're probably charging $20 for mount and balance on the new wheel. They're going to call in the morning (when the parts come in, hopefully) so I'll nail down the actual cost then.
Perhaps the dealer was thinking of performance tires when they made the they'll-come-apart-on-you assessment. They're Q rated (99mph), and I haven't sustained that speed or higher for any amount of time lately. I trust Michelin's advice best; the dealer was just looking to run up my bill a bit more. Typical. I'm sticking with my original plan -- to live with the reversed tire until I get the summers on. When I'm back home, I'll get the original installer to correct the problem.
Thanks for the helpful information.
