im sure they are loving it more than us. I used to work for a local discount tire store, even if they arent making alot of money on the tires, they get huge manufacturer bonuses for moving so many.

btw i just got my rt-615's

I called, was on hold for a few minutes, then a guy came on the line and took my order number. Paused for a couple seconds, said they were on order and they'll be in the first week of November. That was it. Real quick call, dude was very nice.

w0nderbr3ad · 10-24-2007, 03:04 PM

My falkens should be arriving sometime today despite the wild fires haha. w00t

jackal264 · 10-24-2007, 04:11 PM

ok i'm fucking choked. their not going to fill my order!!!

i ordered so many tires they refuse to ship them out. i got a call today and they only shipped out 20 of my 36 tires. the guy actually said he though i was going to sell them on ebay... i'm fucking pissed b/c the deal was done... they had taken the money and everything and now Jay the manager prick is refunding the money... fucking stupid.

that is pretty fucking stupid

it shoudlnt matter what your going to do with the product.

Lodge a complaint against them with BBB

and with the regional wharehouse and regional BBB that shipped them out regionally.

MrChow · 10-24-2007, 04:44 PM

^^ wow..

36 tires???

OptionZero · 10-24-2007, 05:07 PM

if you ARE gonna sell the tires....how bout giving zilvia members a $90 discount?

Koopa Troopa · 10-24-2007, 05:12 PM

Discount tire your tire selection sucks.

2iv0 sx · 10-24-2007, 05:23 PM

Mine are arriving tomorrow.

Should of told them you were taking advantage if the deal to stock up for drift events? I didn't know tires had resale value, silly discount tires guy

jackal264 · 10-24-2007, 05:54 PM

i was never planning on selling them i just bought all the tires i would need for next summer's drifting season but now i'll only get half of what i need.

and it's not worth reporting them to the bbb

and they are all the same size. why would i buy 24 tires all the exact same size if i was going to sell them... the rest were for my gf's car my daily driver wheels and a set of snow tires.

and i made it very clear these were for drifting but they still said no way. i got called by the sales manage.

i'm still pissed

drift freaq · 10-24-2007, 07:00 PM

By law they have a right to decide the amount a retail customer can purchase. The amount you purchased could be construed to be a wholesale purchase because the prices they were giving were pretty much wholesale pricing. Why do I know this? I have friends that buy tires for their own store from the same distributor and the discount came out to just a few dollars over jobber. Now if you provided them with a resale number and opened a account it would be a different story.
Sorry but they do have to protect their own business and your purchase did look predatory they do not want to piss their wholesaler off either.

On that note I am glad the 215/45/17's went on back order because it caused me to order a full set of 225/45/17's today that should be here next week.

Gnnr · 10-24-2007, 09:04 PM

Finally got my tracking number.

jackal264, I think if you're ordering that many tires, you can probably get them at wholesale pricing from a distributor, it'd probably be even cheaper than this special for you. I'd look into that if I where you.

jackal264 · 10-24-2007, 09:27 PM

will do thx for the info

Suk02Si · 10-24-2007, 10:01 PM

Success!

MrChow · 10-24-2007, 10:26 PM

^^ Oh you suck... =P

SHIFT_*grind* · 10-25-2007, 08:09 AM

^Yeeeeeeeeeep.

SHIFT_*grind* · 10-26-2007, 07:46 AM

Well, the money came out of my account, so maybe (hopefully) that means the tires came in and I'll be getting them sooner than they anticipated? I can only hope.

drift freaq · 10-26-2007, 10:39 AM

Got tracking numbers for my 225/45/17 Falkens . They are coming out of two different locations and the first pair arrives on monday. HMMM 57' MAX's on the car by Halloween.

jackal264 · 10-26-2007, 02:36 PM
