OEM PSS tire purchase at Richmond BMW

[omegatlc]

Gang, just wanted to give a heads up that BMW is attempting to "compete" with Tire Rack by beating their prices as a "service to our customers." They charged $365 vs Tire Rack $372 for OEM 265/35/20 and $376 vs Tire Rack $375 for 295/30/20. Add $180 mount/balance labor for all 4 tires plus applicable taxes, disposal fee, etc.

The keys for me were that the PSS' were in stock at the dealership given the back order at a Tire Rack (needed now-my tires were done) and alignment was free as advertised with purchase of 4 tires.

Anyone in the market for PSS' should definitely see what your local BMW dealer is offering.

Let me know if you need more info.

Absolutely, Mgone! They charge $250 for it at my dealer. I didn't take a picture, but they had a window cling advertising why to get tires from them showing the $250 value of the alignment...they had me at 'in stock!'

yup! thats a no brainer if tires are worn out. I had people calling me for 295's and 305's if i have them in stock even used ones and man they are like candies right now.

My tire guy, located in NJ, and not a dealership, was able to get my a new set of PSS's, and is storing for me, free of charge, one of my used front and rear tires, so if I have a flat in the next year, I will have a readily available tire to use.
