Default instant rebate on Michelin at cdn tire

Michelin pilot sport 2 and pilot sport cup included. Get them installed and for $7.00 a tire you get a road hazard warranty as well.

I think the instant rebate is $70 per set of four but the discount is worked out per tire.

Just thought I'd spread the word!

Including the install, warranty, nitrogen and tires, it's only about $100 more than buying from tire rack and shipping here. If you go to the US and pick them up and are able to smuggle them, then you'll save some but you still need to have them installed.

Then what happens if you need a replacement ASAP or if you have any issues with the tire? You need to take them off and ship them out.

Sure, like anything you can save if you inconvenience and take risks. This is a simple, one stop shop for your tires.

Hancook evo v12s will be available soon too.

Totally different bro. All claims are made in house and as long as they don't feel like you're abusing the system (nail in the side wall every time your tires are at 2/32 or burnouts killing tires) they'll cover it. The tire doesn't even have to be sent out. If it's warranties, paperwork is done and a new tire is put on. You pay for balance, TSF and new warranty and you're on the road.

I can already get the SS but they're only available in VERY few select sizes. Spent 20 minutes with the rep at the convention last week and the word is that the PS2 will still be the go to tire for almost all Porsche applications. The SS was made for specific manufacturer applications.

I work at CT as well. The road hazzard warranty for 7.00 a tire is well worth it!

Why is installation and/or ballancing not part of the cost? I feel ripped of when CT and other shops nickle and dime you to death. At CT, the installation is free but the ballancing is extra WTF?

Balancing is extra everywhere. It always has been. It's not just a CT thing but that's life. . Unless you don't want to have your tires balanced when you put them on, which I've had people actually do. If you want nickel and dime, how about the independant tire shops that charge you for stick on weights and valve stems?

You don't have to smuggle them in. The import limits are so high and US prices so low relative to those here, it is not an issue.
