Tire Rack?

Costco, right in you neighborhood. The current deal is for Bridgestone but it ends on 7/4. Hopefully Michelin will be next in the rotation. Make sure to speak to the manager. Once he sees you have a Shelby they will likely treat it like gold.

Tire Rack?

Hey thanks. I meant to put in my post I know all the usual places like Tire Rack, DiscountTireDirect, Walmart, etc. Was wondering if anyone has found any cheap places like Walmart was a few years back....when I didn't need them....

Thanks I didn't think to give Costco a call...

Costco seems to have the best prices. Although the techs at my local Costco do not fill me with confidence. When I asked if they have a touchless mounting system the guy was like "what's that?" lol

Hahahaha....yep I know what you mean about that. I normally buy tires at Americas Tire which is the brick and mortar location of Discounttiredirect.com I've found the store will honor the online price which can be good because I used to pay no tax and no shipping....but who knows if its still no tax....

I just went through DiscountTireDirect.com and put them in my cart to see if they are now charging tax....thats a big FAT yes!!!! Used to get them no tax and no shipping....was a good deal. They are cheaper than Tire Rack by a small amount but I think you pay shipping with TR.

I got a screaming deal on Cup2s a while back at priority tire. They may have older stock, but these days tires are easily good for 10 years if stored properly. I think I paid $240 a tire for Cup2s (which is a steal)

I'm going with stock Michelin's because the car is used for club events and only now and then no track. I'll check with Priority...

Good questions, those tires look pretty much dry track day focused , even more so than cup 2's? Just looking at profile
