My tire guy ordered the tires, Tire rack received the shippment and all of the 18 inch tires had no DOT. Tire rack said they could not sell the 18's and would have to send all 400 of the tires, back to the manufacturer. At least that is what they told my guy. I would have liked all tire treads to match but as long as they do the job this winter, that's OK with me.

By the way xfirejunky, where are you located? Maybe we will meet up some day as I travel much of the state on a regular basis.
