That's too good of a deal to turn down. Came to $631 after tax and fees. I'll wrap them in plastic and find somewhere to store them until the Rivals are done.

I looked closer at my order confirmation email and it says "Availability: Out of Stock" so the order will probably get canceled. Oh well.

I called because I was maybe outside the zip code currently available and the deal is they are due in May 27th and you can order them by calling in if the system won't let you check out.

I got 8 of them.

Thanks so much for posting this! I'm set for the next 2 seasons with 8 tires for about $1225 delivered!

I had to 'mea culpa' to the wife after I ordered. But like others said...simply too good to pass up.


Now my problem is thanks to this set and another set for a new Jeep, I have 18 tires stored in the garage. This is getting out of hand.

I now have 12 wheels ordered from Apex.

If anyone wants my set of Anthracite Apex SM-10 18x11 et 35 w/26mm spacers from the group buy they are yours for my cost. You should get them mid-June.

I ran into this today talking to tire rack about other tires. I ordered two sets. Friends in my group did to. A couple ordered three sets. My falcons I canceled. Due in mid May, now early June or mid June. But can’t beat the deal and used to re71s for years.these will last till 2023...lol

TireRack is worth watching for the occasional stunner deal. I'm running narrower 18x10s on a V6 1LE, and recently picked up a set of closeout Bridgestone S0007A tires in 275/45/18 for just $115 each - I couldn't resist that price. They are still available, but went up to $134.



My current use is non-competitive track days, and that odd 275/45 18" size is equivalent to the OD of the OEM 20" tires. The S0007A is 240TW, and TireRack has them in the Extreme category, but as expected they're much less grippy than 200TW tires. A lot more void space, and on track felt best when driven at eight 10ths. But, they didn't chunk apart and the NVH is an improvement over all 200TW except A052s (which I thought were damn good on the street). They'd be excellent for someone who wants a street & track tire, and who doesn't push hard on the track.
