LGT_Ltd_wagon Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 My dealership offers tires for life if you get all your scheduled maintenance done by them (which I have). The problem is I run Summer tires and Snows in the winters and they will only replace the stock RE-92s which don't wear too much since they are only on the car a few moths per year. I have 102,000 miles now so the dealership will be willing to replace them again. I got the first set of free tires at 56,000 miles when I was only running one set year round and they let me use the cost of the replacements as a credit for a purchase at Tirerack where they were going to order the tires from anyways. What I'm looking for is a set of very worn RE-92s to borrow or if they are so far gone that I could take of your hands. I'm on the south shore of Boston but I am willing to drive Any help would be appreciated Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTTuner Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 I wish I could help you but no RE92's. I'm surprised they won't let you get something different since the 92's are so expensive to begin with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LGT_Ltd_wagon Posted May 24, 2009 Author Share Posted May 24, 2009 No, they let me get anything I want. The problems is I need a fully worn set of stock tires to have them measure them. I got my 18" Enkei RPF1's with Bridgestone RE1-0R as my last set of replacements and used the credit at Tirerack towards the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fzanetti Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Fraud? Fraud, but you didn't even offer anything that you are using to get those freebies... :spin: Flavio Zanetti Boston, MA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LGT_Ltd_wagon Posted May 25, 2009 Author Share Posted May 25, 2009 Fraud? If I had run only one set of tires they would have been worn down to that level. I"ve put over 50,000 miles since the first set and had all my maintenance done at the dealership including oils changes every 3-4k. So NO I don't think its fraud. I am not getting full benefit of the program because I run summer tires and snow tires. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTTuner Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Plus, he has paid his dues for maintaining the car at the dealer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LGT_Ltd_wagon Posted May 25, 2009 Author Share Posted May 25, 2009 Plus, he has paid his dues for maintaining the car at the dealer. I have questioned the "worth" of the program.... but the dealership has gone above and beyond for me a few times.The service dept has done a lot of "goodwill" as they worded it on the receipt so I'm happy to keep going back. They are a really good team of people. And I've never had any problem with the technicians work. So I keep going back plus it's real convenient. Thanks for the support. I was just looking for some help from the forum not trying to get something for nothing. And of course I would have offered something for anyone that helped me. .

Every manufacturer considers the car's dealer service history when administering "Goodwill". No dealer loyalty, no goodwill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
