I have bought numerous sets of tires from Costco without a problem. The tire tech even double checked the torque settings from two sources when they did the 928.

Costco the company has very high standards (I work for a Costco vendor) and I would be very surprised if you would have a problem. This is a company that gives refunds on a notebook computers with no questions asked for 6 months.

Did someone question Costco? My company also sold many products to them for years. Mostly quantity buys on close outs, etc. (Consumer Electronics). I think the only info here is that these are an old design tire, which has been replaced. Doesn't mean that they are not good tires. You just need to look at the date of Manufacture coding on the sidewalls (thankfully, one of the few products where you can tell the age).

Thanks guys...no offense to Costco but I think I'll just go with the newer, N2, sport ribs from Tire Rack. Or perhaps I can get Wheel Enhancement to match Tire Rack's price....
