Have been doing business with Tire Rack off and on for years - dealing with several different sales reps over that time. First class outfit staffed by first class people. As far as I'm concerned, you can't go wrong dealing with them.
Thank you very much for all of your business over the years and the kind words!

I'm impressed. Less than 24 hours after I place my order I'm helping the UPS guy put them in my garage! How can you beat service like that? Supposed to be sunny on Sunday so I'll get them on then.

Great job Tire Rack (and UPS)!

I have to give a big thumbs up to The Tire Rack and Rudy! I just moved from Alabama to Missouri and have been frantically searching for a good used 4x4.

Needless to say, I got to the point of giving up and decided to try and make my Camaro make it through the winter to give me more time to look (and I was definitely running out of time up here). I did a lot of research on here and elsewhere and decided on Pirelli Scorpion Ice and Snow tires. I found some good deals on The Tire Rack, but was having to piece my order together to get what I wanted (still want it to look good ). I was really unsure about going with 19" wheels, so I sent Rudy a message through Camaro5. I talked to Rudy on Monday morning, made sure everything would fit, placed the order and received my ship notice just after lunch the same day. The wheels and tires were delivered Wednesday and I put them on immediately because snow was headed our way today.

This is what I ordered:
19x9 Bremmer Kraft BR05 BRIGHT PVD
4 315MHz Tire Pressure Sensor
4 245/50R-19 Pirelli Scorpion Ice & Snow XL

Here are the pics (sorry, taken late in the day with droidx)! I think this looks pretty good for a winter tire setup

I made it to work just fine this morning, and boy am I happy (and relieved). Thanks Tire Rack and Rudy; your customer service is spectacular.

...On that note, has anyone tried the Continental ExtremeContact DWS tires yet? I know they're all-season and I don't have to worry about snow, but the tread wear rating is very good. 'Just wondering how they drive in warm weather and if anyone has trouble getting traction with them (?).


Wheres the deals on custom wheels..............

Send a message via AIM to justmeron
I went there this past weekend and saved over $150.00 on new tires installed after looking around for over a week. All the other places near me had to back order the tires and some places wanted about 300 to 400 hundred more installed the $150.00 savings was the best deal I found before tire rack. Also while I was there I looked over the show room and the Rims were awesome and very low priced compaired to other places I have looked. The deals are there my friend.

I'm looking for a high-performance summer replacement for the stock tires. However I go to tirerack and don't see anything other than OEM. What happened to your selection? I really want something with a bit of tread life to them! I'm running over 20k a year on them now, mostly highway. I have seperate winter wheels so no need for all-seasons. Do you have anything you would recommend? I've been a long time Kuhmo customer of tirerack and always had good luck with them. Any suggestions? Thanks!

In April we are getting a new tire from BFG that will come in OEM camaro sizes call the BFG Gforce Sport G2. These tires will offer better wear with out compromising performance. There will also be a rebate. They should be here by mid May.

When you click through the link there is no discount. It just shows the sale is coming from this forum.

I see your in Savannah. You can pick up the merchandise in Midway GA if you want. Give me a call and I can set it up for you.
