Since Tire Rack sells tires manufactured in North and South America, as well as Europe, Africa and Asia, it's common for us to receive new tires directly from manufacturers that are already six to nine months old. Since we rotate our inventory, most of the tires we ship are less than a year old...
Really? Tire Rack has to search the internet for information on the tires they sell?
Heres a little "Nugget" I found on Tire Racks Website. Looks like I lost no less than a minimum of 30% on my tires life :omg:
The British Rubber Manufacturers Association (BRMA) recommended practice issued...
I am glad you feel that way. I do not, and we are not talking about a 3-6 month difference if you would have read my previous posts you would have seen that I would be ok with 6 months to 1 yr old but we are talking 3 yrs old here and that being undisclosed sets me off. Please give me an...
You guys can keep arguing semantics but the bottom line is these are not NEW tires they are 3 years old...Point and case I ordered NEW tires I was NOT told they were 3 years old...Will they work YES!....Do I want to lay down and accept the fact that the company I bought them from thinks that...
Your exactly right it is a "principle" issue because me and 400 miles with the way I drive I'll be lucky to still have these haha. :D but thanks again for the support!
Luke,
What are your thoughts on my situation? I purchased Kumho Ecsta XS (OEM Sizes all 4) tires from Tire Rack last week and they arrived with 08 date stamps. I called last Thursday and was told they would check the warehouse for more recent tires it is now Monday with no call back as of...
Thanks for the information Jon! If this works out to me keeping the tires I have (Which it probably will) I will definitely keep the receipt/proof in the glove box for these instances. I am still going to fight for a little discount though :smirk:. I will let you know how I make out.
I would personally have not had an issue with 6 month to 1 yr old tires when they arrived, I would have understood the reasons but from 08 and this common?!? That to me is a big problem, the vendors can claim all day that they had them in a sealed case for all I care but where is the proof? I...
Expiration dates for tires proposed - Nov. 8, 2004
Here's a little bedtime reading for you. Granted this is from 2004 and I wouldn't exactly take auto advise from CNN but it drives the point home of a "shelf life" so to speak. The tire is again in my eyes not 100% and that is what I paid for.
I was concerned because of the Run Craps I am taking off are from 08 and hard as rock and yes they have probably 2K miles on them and have been on the car, I get that, and I do trust the manu. thats why I called them! Do you know for certain that they will pass tech? I will probably have these...
I just bought a set of Kumho Ecsta XS tires all the way around for my 06 coupe and they showed up all ranging from 3908-4308 I called Tire Rack they gave me the "climate controlled" Crap so I called Charles at Kumho he told me that they were as good as new:dunno:, I was going to install them...
I bought my 06 Coupe about a month ago I am 25 right now, If your options are a V6 Camaro or a Viper....GO WITH THE CAMARO you will hurt yourself or someone else in the Viper!! I thought I knew how to drive decent as I own 6 cars right now and one of those is an 8 second 1200HP monster BUT I had...
I am 25 insurance is not that bad 280 a month for full with somewhat cheap deductibles, I would like to put in my .02, I purchased a 06 Srt-10 coupe about a month ago, I told some friends right before the purchase I was about to put in an offer one of them looked at me and said "Your an idiot...
I am from Green Bay WI and a couple weeks ago took delivery of my first Viper an 06 Srt-10 Coupe in GTS Blue with silver stripes, I will get some pictures up as soon as we get some weather decent enough for me to go get some shots in front of Lambeau Go Pack! haha...Anyone know of any other...
