I thought 45 was good my local shop is $100 each if you bring the bike in. And $50 a piece if you just bring in the rims

Nobody mentioned valve stems. Don't you need new ones for the new tire?

Depends how old the previous ones were.

I tend to do them once every 2 tyres. It is simply a matter of cutting the old ones off and pulling new ones through once the tyre is off.
