Post Costco sells Bridgestone again?

I just got the Costco coupons in the mail that are valid 3/11 - 4/3/10 and the first page has a coupon for $70 off a set of 4 Bridgestone Tires. I used to get my '01 S2000 Bridgestone Potenza S-02s there, before they quit selling Bridgstone tires, all together. I need rear tires right now for the NSX and the S2000 will need them in about 5,000 miles. I'm a little excited to think, Costco may start selling Bridgestones again. Funny thing is, I went to Costco.com and they don't mention them.

^^ Good find and good to hear. They do a good job mounting, reasonable costs, plus use nitrogen for air fill

I have been purchasing tires for my passenger cars at America's Tire (Discount Tire from Indiana but they can't use that name in CA). When I wanted a tire tht they didn't stock locally, they matched Tire Rack and shipped the tire to my local store. They don't have nitrogen but do use torque wrenches, etc and seem to be careful. In the SoCal thread, there is a member that works/is connected to an OC store (Santa Ana, Fullerton or ?/) and apparantly they work with S2KI members.

FWIW

I went to Costco today and sure enough, they've been selling Bridgestone's since January 1st. I got a price for Potenza RE 050 Pole Positions for my NSX. I thought it was a good price, with the $70 off coupon, but then someone on NSX Prime gave me a connection that was quite a bit better.

In any case, I'm glad Costco is back selling Bridgestones!

Patricia,

I need a *great* price on some Bridgestone RE11s in AP2 sizes - can you hook me up?

I've used Tire Rack in the past, but Costco is a lot less hassle. I would use them if the difference were no more than 10%
