    Rear BFG's OEM on sale at tire rack

    Just checked prices on Tire Rack, rear tres on sale for $104. Wonder why the back tires wear out before the front??

    Took MM in for first "scheduled" maintenance - 4600 miles - tech called to tell me that I had extreme amount of tire wear - rear tires only. What can I say......

    They were down to $83/each a month or two ago. The fronts are still $125. I wrote to Tire Rack and asked if the price for the fronts were ever going to be reduced becuase I wanted to buy four fronts. I was basically dared to find a better price. Just for that smart-ass reply I now plan on taking my money somewhere else, even if it isn't cheaper.

    Check ebay. A place has been selling sets of four matching fronts for $350 with buy it now option. Not sure if they currently have a set on auction but they did a week ago. I believe the place is called Van & RV Supply.
    Thanks to Darrin @ BC Automotive:
    $1800 and it was worse than when he started!
