Tax, license, other fees
Is sales tax based on the county where dealer or buyer resides? Also what does license typically run in CA? And lastly what others frees do dealers typically try to tack on?

A tire disposal fee before you dispose of tires? I thought tire dealers charged that when you bought new tires and they disposed of your old tires.
Although not listed separately in the great link that YNOTRIDE provided, the CA Board of Equalization says it's $1.75 per tire including the spare on all new vehicles purchased.
Here's their text:
(g) For purposes of this section, "new tire" means a pneumatic or solid tire intended for use with on road or off-road motor vehicles, motorized equipment, construction equipment, or farm equipment that is sold separately from the motorized equipment, or a new tire sold with a new or used motor vehicle, as defined in Section 42803.5, including the spare tire , construction equipment, or farm equipment. "New tire" does not include retreaded, reused, or recycled tires.
