Do we (Audi World go'ers!) not get special pricing from Tire Rack?
I got the same quote via their website as I did on the phone. I was under the impression (right or wrong) that we got a slightly better deal? So what is the benefit here?<p>Nick Snyder

The price quoted is the price you get. believe me I could have got my BBS and Potenzas cheaper but I rather get them mounted and balanced by tire rack.

I'm just buying tires. I agree, if I were getting a wheel/tire package.

Re: buying from me @ Tire Rack
Unfortunately we do not offer any group, individual, club, CCA or any other discounts since we sell at the lowest margin possible to begin with, as much as I would like to I somply have nothing to offer you.
Bear in mind that on wheels & tires I do ship mounted & balanced at no extra charge (typically 60-80.00 if done locally), and all hardware neded (lugbolts, hub rings, etc.) is provided at no charge to you as well.
Plus you get my advice & helpful hints to help you in your buying decision at no charge as well (hopefully you all find this helpful).
As always call me direct to order or with any questions!
Eddie<p>Call me direct to order, or list "Eddie 369" as your previous contact if you order online so I can track it for you!

Why do you guys use rubber valve stems and not metal ones.

Re:rubber valve stems and not metal ones.
It keeps things simpler. A multipiece metal stem has a greater likelihood oif of causing air loss in temperature extremes in different climates, and is mostly cosmetic more than anything else.
I do have them available if you would prefer them, you just need to let me know when you place the order if you really prefer them, they are usually sold at 3.00 each.

Re: buying from me @ Tire Rack
Do you still use glue on wheel weights versus hammer on weights? I bought snow tires on rims a few years ago from tire rack and was disapointed to see the glue on weights. I've found the glue on weights are too easy to have fall off.<p>Allen
