Default Bridgestones on back order WTF?! Who to call?

I ordered tires to go on my rims, and the fronts arrived, but the rears they claim are on back order. Bridgestone gave no expected date of arrival to the tire shop. ERRRR.

Does anyone have ANY idea who i need to speak to so I can get a date? Id hate to wait around with my thumb up my a$$ any longer then I already have. Its now week 6, with no rims on my car. Im getting a TAD irritated.

Please help

try another vendor! I ordered through www.onlinetires.com

They didn't have my rears either, 275/35/19, but they sent someone to a warehouse and found a set for me. Great prices too.

They are pretty close to the price I paid, but thier price has shipping tacked on too. Another 50-150 bux.

I already ordered through my buddies Tires Plus shop. He told me they get it DIRECT from Bridgeston. hence, BRIDGESTON is saying they are backordered. Who can i call there?

I would keep searching different sites, some have free shipping. They may have actual inventory in stock, so the back order wouldn't effect them.

scott, your funny, noone at bridgestone is going to talk to you about sending your tires..........chill out, be patient, youre getting a good deal, let it go.. either pick a different set of tires, or wait. you ARE very impatient.

What DOES define patience then? I dont think sitting here for 6 weeks makes me inpatient. How long did YOU ALL wait for tires? One week, Two weeks, 2 minuntes?! Im just saying, I dont think I am being unreasonable Eric.

just as a re-cap, for those of you that are new to his situation, he is running a 8" wheel, so the 275 will NOT fit, PLUS he already has a set of the rears, so he needs to get the 245 in the S03.
