great deal, too bad they are 2005 stock. Wonder if 4 year old tires get hard on the shelf enough to make a difference?

Hard to say, although in my experience, the Tire Rack people are up front about what issues may be encountered with a potential purchase. I just put RE050A's on last year, so I am not in need right now.

well, can anyone else chime in on this issue?

TireRack is a place that sell tires all the time, I'm sure they keep them in good shape, and are not going to sell "paper weights"

does the warrenty still apply? or the road hazard program? my dad says so long as these aren't used, they might be allright for a little while, but won't know untill actually put them on and fill with air ...

I've known about the sale for about a month now. Most of the sizes are sold out.
