Smaller tires cost less and xovers usually need 4 tires if there’s a certain thread difference. My mazda 3 cost 600 for 16" Michelin crossclimate2, which are considered good tires and also up there in price.
You can have your alignment checked before getting the alignment. Often you won’t need one. Every time I’ve checked everything was perfectly fine still.
Maybe because a sedan has less room inside for children and storage space?
I bought a crossover when my sedan was totalled not super long after my kid was born, and it was actually beneficial to me, because I could actually fit the stroller in the back of the crossover, but not really in the sedan.
I’m in Ohio and drive a Subaru Crosstrek. 255/17/55 tires arent cheap. I could have gotten discount tires somewhere, but i work at a union tire plant and so i got the premium tires that i make for a living.
Thinking more about it, what brand tires di you buy? Chinese firms have been flooding the market with cheap tires to undercut domestic union made tires in America and Europe.
700$!? Where are you located that tires are this expensive? Here in Austria they are between 40€-80€ per 1 tire.
A new set of 4 tires plus alignment for my compact crossover is about $900-930 in the US.

I paid $700 2 years ago for tires for my SUV. SUV tires are a bit more expensive - but they’re still not cheap for sedans. I’m in the USA.
Lol. Why pay extra for an SUV? It’s like throwing money away. You can easily get sedan tires under $100.
I sold the SUV a few months later, lol. I drive a hatch now.
They are usually larger. SUV tyres are at least R17 (or R19 if you’re super fancy) while sedan tyres are between R14 and R16.

Well he was suddenly 3 inches higher. So probably a big car/something with big tires. Almost Everything is more expensive on bigger cars.
40 Euro for a tire? Is that stolen and/or used?

I don’t know which ones they exactly were but it was from some German company as far as I remember.
My car has AWD and 35 profile ties. It’s at least 1200USD for anything that doesn’t suck because I have to change all four at the same time.
