Why only buy one set at a time? Must be cheaper by the container load. Would give you some storage at the same time!

Well if I must explain and educate, I shall.
Tires will get hard just sitting in storage.
Fortunately for me, they do not make a lot of these
tires, so I don't have to worry about manufactures date.

But folks buying tires that are made in masses should check dates on side walls
to make sure they are not a year or two old, before ever going on car.

I know you were joking, but there actually is a good answer ?

You go through sneakers fast enough that having a pair on hand wouldn't be wasteful! Mine were freshly minted before shipping last summer. Expect next spring will be time to order another set!

I actually ordered a set last fall, they set the wrong
Michelin Sport cup 2 tires,
Seems they have a hard time understand
spec tire for my car, give them the info and they don't input it.
 
finally my summer mods have arrived.
Happy, happy, happy :)

So today I found out what the actually problem was.
Guy ordering totally gapped it.
Order wrong size / wrong tire.
So instead of quickly re-ordering mine
he tried to return, with no luck, as special order.

then finnlay gave in and ordered these and by then
covid in play, two out of US and two out of Montreal
added to it, so 2 months instead of 10 days.

Rare tires cause havoc when something goes wrong.
But I got before summer season, so all is good.
Now to find time to get changed.
90 hour weeks makes it tricky lol.

PS, Might be a set of Michelin super sports for sale at decent
price, If I can get info on sizes and pricing,
and if someone is looking for a high performance tire,
might work out. I know super sports list in $2800 range.
mind you no one pays list, but could be a very good deal.
 
So cleaned the baby and put her away, still a couple things
to do, dryer sheets in car, battery tender and cover, but
good for another winter, bare with me while I shed a tear ?

35060 km the total when putting away, so grand total of
2745 km this year, that just seems so wrong.
Hopefully 2021 allows for better car season.
