TIre Rack Sucks! - Mazda 6 Forums : Mazda 6 / Mazda Atenza Forum

dsulli37 · 11-15-2006, 10:41 PM

I was going to go down to South Bend this weekend to get a set of Dunlop Wintersports in 215 50 17 on Ford Fusion rims....and they don't have them amymore. Last week they did! I am SO PISSED! How can they stop selling them at the peak of snow tire season?

they dont stop selling them, they SELL OUT of them. people all over the country are buying them, and everyone buys 4 at a time, they go quick.

THey know they are going to sell them so they stock up. Dunlop tools up. I wonder if their tires are made at Goodyear plants?

that is no reason to say it sucks. things run out. it is life. i have dealt with tire rack many times and have had nothing but good experiences.

Duh......it IS almost winter, and they do sell a lot of tires. Is any of this making any sense yet? Did you bother to ask them when they'll be getting more in instead of just throwing your 3-year old style tantrum?

Tire Rack has always treated me well. Did you talk to anybody about when they'd be getting more, etc? I'm just surprised that they left you so sour, never had any treatment from them that would have me bashing them.

Just so you know, Dunlop is on strike right now as well, so if they don't have Dunlops in stock, good luck getting more. I just got my Graspics yesterday and apparently I got lucky, most of their tires are not coming out of the factory at the moment.

Not a good idea for any American factory to go on strike right now dont you think when the Japanese products are eating your lunch!!!
