Anybody have any news on a bridgestone spring rebate yet?

My thoughts exactly. I am waiting for a real price drop on RE11s. If not I may do the rivals or even the Z2s.

Yeah I just woke up to find my tires were shipped also.

And I was on the verge of calling TR to change my order for RE-11As.

They are in stock and ready to go. We will drive them late spring when the weather is nicer but in the test that I have seen they are really going to be a good handling tire. If I can help let me know.

I am on the fence on what size to order, I have 18X9.5 and between 255 and 265. If this were a normal tire I would get the 255 but all this talk about running thin is freaking me out. It would be a 35R profile. I want them just slightly stretched, no bulge for sure. Guys when you get your tires in please comment on the width! Thanks. And then tear them up on the track for a full report. Somebody in sunny warm Cally must have these mounted by now!?!?!?!?!?!
