Run the DHs with less PSI - like 29-32 hot. Stickier than NT-01s.

Where do you guys order these when the sale isn't going on? I knew I should have a set earlier this year, now cheapest I see for a 275 17" is $208 on amazon.

880 for a set of 4 with free shipping from SimpleTire - use code FS15 until 7/18 for 15% off.

Just got 305 squared for my camaro and got 280 dollars off.

Guys, what's the likelihood of a Labor Day sale for discount tire? Do they still run the $100 off $400, or is it $100 off a set now? Sep-Nov is going to be very track heavy and I don't have tread left on my current set.

I think they run the discount near the end of every quarter. Nitto has a rebate program which is counted on a quarterly basis.

I'm guessing that Discount wants to move certain types of tires so they max out their rebates from Nitto.

Just a theory...

As mentioned above Simple Tire did a Labor Day sale for 15% off, but I decided to hold out for the "big" ebay sale they typically run. I hope I do not regret that decision.

^ brb gonna try and wear out these RS4 real quick.. better get some more seat time in the next few weeks and beat on them. Their redeeming quality is that they last so damn long, but I think I've overcooked them. Had blue rings around shoulders and they've started to slide easier. I've been getting recs to up it to NT01 and longer lasting pads, so this is a good sale!

Make the move to NT01s. You won't regret it. It's the only tire I know of that gets faster as you wear through the tread.
