Now, the car is still moving all the miles you drive because it is being towed; Just the engine is not running. So, the tires and bearings are getting all the mileage. Which, really, is not a big deal especially if you got good tires. A good set of tires can be had for less than $300.
Bearings are cheap and, of course, you know you get like 50,000-60,000 miles on them.
So, how do they pay? by mile or percentage?
