thanks,
justin

I'm still checking it but not at 2am.

Call me ASAP at the number in my sig. and we'll work something out.

Looks like I just found a set for you. Keep your fingers crossed. They should ship today.

Gill, I publicly must say, YOU ARE DA MAN!! despite what some may say

now, with great grip, but crappy thread wear, I wonder how many laps around the track I can get before they go bad!

emm3tt · 03-03-2009, 03:06 PM

Just go my fronts today, the rears are on the way compliments of Gill....
Thanks Gill....you are definately da man!!!

nordique14 · 03-05-2009, 10:54 AM

my tires should be here today. woo-hoo!

KeithLM · 03-05-2009, 11:13 AM

Woot! Just got my 8 delivered. Thanks again Gill!

Citizen Z · 03-05-2009, 12:40 PM

I just got back from having mine mounted. WOW! What a huge difference from the RFTs. An immediate and VERY noticeable improvement in road manners. Bumps what would have been a distinct, "CLUNKCLUNK" are now a subdued, "badump." I can't comment about handling because I like to take it easy on tires for the first 100 miles or so. The (ONLY) local shop that can do low profile installs ripped me off bigtime on the mount and balance, $35/tire + disposal fees, but considering my net savings vs buying local or even ANY other deal, I'm not too disgruntled, I just won't recommend them any business. :P

akak1997 · 03-05-2009, 01:09 PM

My tracking say it'll be here on the 6th, that's tomorrow! Hopefully I can get it mounted on 7th. then I'll be heading up to the mountains

arok · 03-05-2009, 01:11 PM

mine should be at the office today... lol I'll have an interesting time here in my small cube w/a efw tires..

ssabripo · 03-05-2009, 01:13 PM

imagine coming home to this:

one-35 · 03-05-2009, 01:36 PM

Gil, I left you a VM. Any 235/40R18s left? Will these fit on an 18x8 ET42 Sport Edition CD front wheel without rub on my 135i (at the track)? I got through 80% of the order, but it ran out when I tried to confirm/place final order on Monday. - Tony

Hopefully not... I've seen at least 2-3 people wreck their cars coming out of car shows because they did something like that. The stuff doesn't exactly help the tires grip BETTER.

Here was my eye candy yesterday (already coated with Wheel Wax too

):

(Sorry, the iPhone doesn't do well unless there is ample lighting...)

akak1997 · 03-05-2009, 04:07 PM

you guys are evil... now all I can think of is putting those on my car... I'd be piss if UPS truck didn't drop of those at my installer tomorrow...

arok · 03-05-2009, 09:45 PM

the rubber smelled so good in the empty cube next to mine lol

nordique14 · 03-05-2009, 10:57 PM

ups guy dropped of my rubber today. the faster I burn through the stock RFT the better.

Thanks Gill.

We have bought all remaining inventory of the RE01R, and we expect these tires to come into stock next week. We were able to get very good closeout pricing from Bridgestone, and we are passing these savings on to our customers.
Nearly all the tires are 2007 or newer production date, but a few part numbers were built in 2005. These 2005 tires, as expected, are priced lower than the 2007 closeout tires.

Pricing is while supplies last only.Special pricing (crazy understatement!) will appeared on the website this morning. These tires are expected to sell out very quickly.

Example:

225/40/18 $128 each
255/35/18 $84 each

All the other sizes have similar pricing.

Tires are coming into SB, DE, and NV only; please order only from one of these three warehouses if the tire is not already in stock in LA or GA.

Please call or email me directly with any questions, comments, concerns or orders. If you order online please use the "shop now" link at the top of this page so 1addicts.com can also benefit from your purchase.

Gill,

Any chance you have these sizes left?

225/40/18 $128 each
255/35/18 $84 each Or 245/35/18
