Even though im in great need of tires and this is a great deal, im going to stick with my Toyo T1R's......They hook up great on and off the track so it's a no brainer for me. I just read on dragtimes that one of the SLK32 AMG cars were running the Toyo's and you know what? Other than StarCar, he had the next best 60ft. Coincidence? :P

Thanks, I'll post the data once the tires arrive.

I'm tempted to keep the existing rear tires , they have a "few" miles left in them, but then again it's just more junk clogging up an already spatially challenged garage.

It might be good just to have one for a spare.

You can selelct vehicle Chrysler, Crossfire, SRT6, Rear. Then 4th down.
Keep the other set. I figure if you have a blow out on weekend, at
least you have an extra tire that a gas station can put on .
I have complete old set in my shed. Now I can get ride of those old
PS2 rears and replace with set on my car. I'll bring one's in shed to
Costco to use my Tire Disposal fee..

I can't find them now as of 3:50PM MDT. They probably figured out their error.

I tired to order, but they want to install them at Costco. The nearest one is over 50 miles away. Did anyone get them delivered to them direct?

Mine says they shipped today. Also says ZR on the receipt. I think all PS2's are the same, we'll see in a few days when they arrive.

If you didnt order by about 12:00pm PST you missed the boat. They have fixed the price and the tires are back to $397 each.

They must be sold out after the made rush they had on them.

I was glad to share this find, too bad it went down after just 2 days. It was fun while it lasted.

I hope more than just those that replied to my original post. Just so you know I'm not a shill for Costco, I got my tire order in yesterday-- $104.99 per tire woohoo!!

Curious to know how many forum members got in on the deal; aside the half dozen of you that posted replies in this thread.

Besides the forum members, maybe someone dropped a big order on them, causing them to wise up and close it down.

I once got some $22.00 PBX hand set cords for my company for $2.20 because of a website typo. But this purchase felt way better, I wonder why?

Did someone tell Costco Whoa??
