Set of 4 185/65/15 cost $293.82, which included shipping from Indiana to central NY. another 55 bucks to have them mounted and balanced. At the time, Sears was selling the tires for about 12 dollars more a tire.
They work great in the snow, and are fine when its dry too. As with any snow tire there is some vibration from the treads. I can mainly feel it through the steering wheel, it tickles a bit. Cornering performance suffers, but since I had 195/60/15's on my car before, the difference isn't as pronounced as for the people who are coming from 16 inch rims and tires. Everyone with 16 inch rims whines about how bad they are for performance, I guess this means that I should try a 900 with 16 inch rims and see how much better the performance is than with the 15's. I'm rambling.
The tirerack is a good bet. Check out their website.

Antenna that loves the cold weather so much it refuses to go all the way back into the warm trunk every time.
