[TPR] Tires

[John Bentley]

Actually, the tires I got from tire rack were good and those from pantera east were way old even after prior emails assuring me they would be good. I agree going with a local shop that will look out for you is the way to go

You could simply threaten that if the date codes aren't within XX months or years that you will be demanding a refund to include shipping charges both ways.  How far that gets you.... I don't know.  The best thing to do may be to find a good reputable tire shop near you that can order what you want and let them deal with getting the right date codes.
