I guess I got a great deal then. I am learning as I go. Thanks everybody for making me feel better. The sales manager did tell me since the thread was so low on the other one when I bought it he would give them to me discounted price.

If the warranty covers and pays to repair or replace the RIMS and tires maybe.. but thats still a lot of money. I've had a lot of cars over the years and have damaged rims before but not often enough for a warranty that expensive, I seriously doubt that warranty would ever pay for itself.

$170 is not bad at all for tires. If I remember correctly, replacement C6 Goodyear F1 run-flats were nearly $400 a piece.

If they were 20 and the exact same tires that come on the car thats a 500 tire by itself. So where are you other people getting your numbers from??

You do realize if he got the exact same tires that come on the car thats a 500 tire by itself, so yeah the warranty paid for itself. Which would make a set of tires closer to 2000 for the whole car.

http://www.tirerack.com/tires/TireSe...&filterType=oe Paying almost 43% of the price of an item for a limited warranty to cover it is completely stupid. In 15 years of driving I've had maybe 2 situations ever that a tire was damaged on the road where it needed to be replaced. The chances of damaging TWO of the tires where the warranty vaguely pays for itself is about the same as hitting the lottery. Is it possible? Yes, but so is getting struck by lightning.

$170 a tire is a pretty screaming deal. I took my RS pirellis off after 500 miles cause I am not a fan. I have them at the dealership now and am asking $750 for all 4 which I think is a sweet deal...but $170 ea is even better. And I agree $384 for a tire warranty is WAY up there!

Mine listed a seal kit on the window sticker, but I really doubt they are run flats. I'm gonna go check.
