I'll check that out as well. I think there is a $50 off coupon if you buy 4 at costco right now for bf goodrich
Costco? I wouldn't buy tires for my mini-van at Costco. Good luck if you take your Porsche or even its wheels to Costco. They were ignorant and disrespectful to me the last two times I was in their tire store.

Don't take a chance that they will sell you look-a-like tires. There is another thread discussing the fact that Costco has Michelin make "special" tires just for them.

What would you do I they didn't have the correct valve stem? Happened to me.

What if they crush your oil lines? Or scratch your wheels?

Costco no way. Spend an extra $5 per wheel and do it with a tire store with a good track record with Porsches.
