What are you guys doing for "salesperson's signature" on the CCA rebate?

It says that it isn't required, so I just wrote "Purchased at www.TireRack.com"

Mine went out in the mail this morning... I'll post back when the check arrives!

Excellent - thanks a lot. So four of these freaking tires, which you can find elsewhere for over $160 each, is going to cost me -+ $150 total (with shipping).

HOLY CRAP!

I hope we don't put these things on to find they're defective - that's just the cynic in me talking.

I just had mine mounted yesterday. They are very, VERY slippery until the release agent wears off. They stick very nicely after that! They had a very agressive test!

Great Deal from Tirerack

Got my tires today at the new reduced price of $49 each. What a huge difference from the RunFlats. Anyone thinking about new non-RunFlats should jump on this great deal before they are all gone.

Happened to notice these on Tirerack tonight, bought a set of 4 - 205/50/16. Was about to post a thread and then noticed this ... I won't be able to use them (NJ) until like April - but that's ok - a GREAT price - $231 including shipping for all 4. I just couldn't pass up on that.

Ordered 4 of these and received 2 of them today. Hopefully the other 2 will show up tomorrow so that I can have them mounted tomorrow.

I've put about 10k miles on mine and love them. They are much better at the track than the Toyo Proxes 4 I replaced them with. They work really well in the rain even through standing water.

I know you are not supposed to use them in snow at all, but I just wanted to confirm this fact after trying it out the other day on maybe a quarter to half inch of snow. Completely worthless!!

There's currently a $50 rebate that is sent with your receipt, which I believe is good through January 31. I ordered my set at the end of December and received the rebate form from Tirerack. Tires are now on the car, and I can definitely say this is a good deal!

I just mounted the last set of GY EF1 GSD3's that I bought at closeout prices, went to buy some more, got distracted and now there are none on the website (at closeout prices) :(

Alex - does this mean you are completely out, or, might you be getting some more in?
