I ordered mine (in stock sizes) from Tire Rack. The website had them a few dollars cheaper than from Discount Tire Direct.

After I ordered them, I was contacted by the DTD Vendor on the boards here who said he would have price mathed them.

Check with our Site Vendors....

Actually, I got mine from a guy in Pittsburgh off of ebay...brand new. He claimed that they were not mistakes or whatever they call them.

I had discount tire take a look at them when they showed up, before they put them on. They ran some tests, have no idea what they did, and told me that they were just fine.

Haven't had any problems with them, and I got a set of 285 30 20's (2 rear tires) for $280. Best deal I have gotten so far.

I have those exact same sizes - call the tire rack, they'll be able to fix you up (around $1,100 shipped, I believe)

One thing to watch out for is that they still make both the version 1 and version 2 tread patterns, but they generally only offer one pattern type per tire size, not both. I wanted 255/40/18 and 275/40/18 sizes, but they only make version 2 in the former, and version 1 in the latter. Watch the model numbers for TT (traditional tread) and NT (new tread). I ended up having to go with a different tire because I could not get matching tread types for the sizes I needed.

Yes, thats the same guy, I'm glad to know you had them checked out and there fine, I was afraid of getting burnt on this deal and decided to just go ahead and take a gamble with it
