we still have open slots for tire mounting and balancing for next week. We can get most tires in faster than Costco and with competitive prices. Plus you leave without scratches on your wheels =)

READY for weekend installation! the 'blizzak' white paint will be finessed more tomorrow (clean up edges of letters) although I’m sure the white lettering won’t last.

Just realized my snow tires that I bought are from 46th week of 2014. Is that something I should be concerned about?

^ that wouldn't be okay with me if purchased new even if they're perfectly fine for a few seasons and beyond
I don't think I would fight the crowds for it though...maybe ask for pro-rated refund back for 2-3 years?

SOL?
It's not illegal since rubber age is not relevant to the condition of tire. As long as the treads are unworn, it's deemed new.
I bought it from Canadian Tire about 2 weeks ago.
I can go back and cause a stink but I guess they technically have a right to decline any compensation.

What's the warranty like? Or did you get some sort of extended warranty? If not (and if you care enough about them being 3 years old and they won't compensate you) is an extended warranty still available to you, since it was a recent purchase? Did you use a credit card?

Did you use a credit card? | I didn't pay for any extended warranty, so I just have the basic coverage. I paid by credit card, but to be honest, I didn't have any intention of paying extra on top, which is why I opted out on the extended warranty.

Those tires were produced the 46th week of 2014. Sometimes online stores like tire rack, even local stores will have discounted tire section for the near 3 year sizes.
If they have been kept in a warehouse, in store, in a garage etc those tires will be just fine.

Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk | Depending on how they're treated, if they're only used half the year and stored indoors the other half then they should last much longer (assuming you don't wear through the tread).

Are you going to go back though? Kind of curious to see how CT will handle it. I just also realized not all my tires have the same DOT. One was actually manufactured this year.

sort of off-topic but winter has arrived. On Thursday in Whistler we had the first real snow of the season (and first car in the ditch of the season), as usual an SUV. Hi there Land Rover driver. Pic was taken while we all sat at a standstill waiting for the tow truck to pull him out of the ditch.

Not sure if this has been asked earlier in the thread, but I have a set of tires I need put on to my current wheels. The places I normally go are booked up right now (for obvious reasons) but I was just wondering is Costco or Canadian Tire will put them on the wheels and back onto the car for me? And if anyone knows their pricing for that. TIA

Costco will do non Costco tires. $15 a wheel (includes mounting, balancing, installation) but get ready for lining up at 5am or a 3.5 week waiting list for appointments
