I didn't see them in the list . . . although I wouldn't be surprised if they offer a discount if asked for . . . I've found a few co's that offered impropmptu discounts.

the SCCA has contignacy sponsors. If you WIN a national, not regional, race with more then 5 competitors, you might get a certificate for one tire.

I believe their prices are pretty low as it is. Considering how well they take care of their customers, I don't mind paying their asking price. The only responses I see on this forum regarding their products/services have been positive.

I agree there prices are pretty darn low, and service is great. But I remember a employee of a tire store showed me what tires really cost, and I cried at the profit they make. You think oil and starbucks makes a profit, check out tires. God Bless a free market!

You would think that the SCCA discounts would have something to do with cars and parts but, theres' not much there. I don't even bother checking there any more.
Steve, you may want to check at Summit for KD's, www.summitracing.com. Their west coast warehouse is in Reno.

Thanks, they are pretty much the same price as SEARS. Now I may do Sears and open an account and get the 10% deal on first purchase???
