Default Bridgestone RE-070

I could be wrong, and I hope I'm not ...but I think I just found a steal of a deal on OEM C/R tires:

TireRack
Fronts: $185.00 - Rears: $236.00

Majestic Honda
Fronts: $141.65 - Rears: $168.83

Am I missing something ...because that's a big difference in price?

Tried ordering S02's from them once. They said they wouldn't...forget the reason. Shipping I think.

My guess is that they just take the entire parts catalog and throw it on the web site with a formula for cost (their cost * some profit percentage).

Yes, they canceled my CR lip because it was Fed Ex oversize, and they won't ship oversize.

Well, I ordered some tires from them, and my card WAS charged and I've yet to get a call saying the order was cancelled, so I'm guessing they're going to ship soon

Don't be sure of that. I ordered a bunch of stuff, didn't hear from them, stuff arrived and it was missing a nice new front bumper I ordered. Inside was a receipt saying it was refunded to my credit card. No communication from them. It did get credited to my card, so no harm, but they aren't very good at communicating.

[QUOTE=Suspension,May 11 2009, 03:48 PM] Don't be sure of that.
