****BUY THIS ROAD HAZARD WARRANTY!!! ***READ*** - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

*TAG UR IT* · 07-11-2009, 02:32 AM

As everyone knows, I just had a horrible experience with having to try to get a new front right P-Zero Pirelli tire on my SS. I did not purchase the road hazard warranty when buying the car and ended up having to pay full price for a new tire. The new tire ran me $529.00 out the door.

A new road hazard warranty for a new car runs between $300 to $500. A member PM'd me today saying he got his quote today for $300.

I went by my Discount Tire company today....

I walked out with my new road hazard warranty for all 4 tires. Anything happens to them and they get replaced for FREE.

all for an incredibly low price of....

$254.50

Correct. You really can NOT beat that!!!

Yes, I am now covered....and I really hope you guys end up contacting Discount Tire as well and get yourself covered. You don't think about it happening to you until it's too late.

Supermans · 07-11-2009, 02:35 AM

YES!

I already put 2,200 miles on my new tires and the guy was completely aware of what happened w/ the stereo shop. He said that before he worked for Discount, he bought a new Excursion...or...shoot...some SUV and the road hazard warranty from the dealer was OUTRAGEOUS. He said that as soon as he got his new car, he went straight to Discount and added the warranty.

I could not believe it either. I was expecting $300 to $400.

THIS IS WHAT I PURCHASED TODAY.

I bought the warranty and it's cost is half of what one tire costs. Free replacement. You just can't beat this!

DO IT!

Not bad at all..

*TAG UR IT* · 07-11-2009, 03:05 AM

At three years, I'll be getting a new set....

So yep. This, for me, is a great deal. Shoot, I could have used it already!

TheNetGarage · 07-11-2009, 03:08 AM

Great Info Tag........Thanks! Does this cover Rims also? I think the one for $600 from Dealer covers the rims if I am not mistaken.

The one from Discount covers tires only! The one through the dealer covers Rims and tires..... neither covers normal wear on the tire!

Discount Tire is the only shop who gets my busines. When I purchased my new rims for the Camaro I wanted to keep my old tires. Me and my buddy who had a pickup truck to carry all the tires and rims headed over to Discount tire, I had never delt with them yet but my buddy highly recomended them so we went there. My buddy heads in to ask what it would cost for them to take four tire off one set of rims and throw them on the other.

I was expecting to pay $50 - $60 per tire, my buddy comes out and tells me it will not cost us anything, I thought he was jokeing. He then tells me they looked him up in their system and saw that he had purchased the road hazzard insurance on the tires for his wifes car, And that he is a regular customer for his other cars, they then told him there would be no charge. I was so impressed with their customer service that I started buying my tires there for all my vehicles. You don't find many companies out there that will take care of their customer because they recognize this customer is one of their good customers.

I also like the way they run their stores. The group in the shop trades off with the group in the showroom so everyone does everything. My car is lowered so they can not put it on the lift, they have to use jacks. It's like watching a Nascar team when they work on the car, they don't leave it to one guy to work on. They also torque the lug nuts down, not just airgun them on like other places.

They also fix flat tires for free, had three on two different vehicles fixed so far

If you use discount tire I guarantee you will not be disappointed.
