do they really do a blowout sale and try to get rid of their inventory??? can't they just sent it back to a storage and sell them again next year??? i thought tires are one thing that never go on a big sale since they will always be need at any cost....

Walmart. I got my snows there last year. The Walmart near my place had an inventory sale a few weeks ago and they were selling their snows for around $40 for 14's and 15's.

I work at walmart and they only have specials on the tires they have in stock. There are no more new inventory coming in so chances are they only have odd ball sizes.

Yes, Walmart is the place. You'll have to call around. I picked up a set of Dunlop Graspics ds-1's for $53 a piece. Call around - you may have to go to few stores to cobble up a set but at the prices they offer it's worth the drive..

Every single post I have ever came into, I always see you stating exactly what another person already has. Dude whats the point in that? Its like you don't know, and your reading other peoples post and posting based soley on theirs.. Heh.

No beef, Just wondering is all.

Tires do have an expiration period that is what a lot of tires sold at Cosco are. They are typically more then 2 years old. I would never buy a tire that has been left unmounted for more then a year. Always check the build date on the inside of the tire.

we are selling Pirelli winter carving 15"s for $500.00 all 4.
(I put 4 of these on my car, before we started selling them, for just over $650.00 plus tax)and im driving a rear wheel drive sports car on them with no trouble. Worth every penny.
