<p>[QUOTE="Rideandrepair, post: 11427004, member: 168603"]That’s a good tactic. The best really. When tires were cheap. I’d buy a set of drives before I had to. I recall 8 Yokos for $1600. I bought a set the first year they offered Truck Tires. 1” of tread. Deeper than any other. Now they’re 15/16” same as 726s. Also Continentals 8 for $2000. I’ve had 2 sets of Continental. Made by General, they’re a premium tire. My favorite of all. Both sets lasted longer than any Drive I’ve had. Better than 726. Only had one set of 726. Bridgestone prices went crazy high. Seems they only care to market to Fleets. Lcapp program had a great discount, only way to justify buying them IMO. The tire market changes often. My purchases always rely on what’s being promoted on sale. I’ve got some of my best deals from T/A and sometimes Petro, on the weekends, end of the month. Depends on the Manager, and their promotions. Each is different, depending on their stock. I always check. Never know.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
