They sent me an UPS call tag and I just left the old tire on my front porch (super classy for a day).

Discount tire mount and balanced they new one for $23.

Also worth noting...Tire Rack can shave your new tire to match the tread depth of your current set of tires. Yes, it seems silly to pay to remove life from your tire, but it eliminates the concern of new vs. old tire diameter for complex all-wheel drive systems.
I just had A set of Pirelli’s mounted and decided to get the extra coverage. It has more than paid for itself the last few sets. I drove down to Portland so no sales tax, almost broke even. Then dropped it off at a Portland shop for a complete aftermarket sound system upgrade.
