Question Tire program

I'm having a hard time using the FMCA TIRE Program. Can't find any dealers that participate. Where do the folks, on this forum get their tires? I'm in Olympia. Can travel up to 50 miles. Thanks for any responses.

When we tried to use that program the final price was more than the price we were able to get from a local tire dealer. The local dealer made it easy by making sure that we had recently made tires and installing them while we had lunch nearby. We had used them for car tires before and still use them. After sales service is there if we need it along with everything else you get with a local independent dealer. That was at least ten years ago so things may have changed.

I finally got the FMCA program straightened out. It was quite a hassle, (for me). The tires are ordered and I'm using a dealer just a few miles from me. The Hankook district manager found them for me. When the job is done I'll post the final cost. Since I'm not in a hurry it may be a couple weeks.

I was not impressed with either the FMCA or Escapees tire programs and shopped online an then locally. I got a local tire dealer to match my best online price.

Smile Long time!

It took a long, long time but finally got the tires. It didn't help that Hankook bailed out of the FMCA program, soon after I started the process. Koodoes to GRC tires, in Chehalis, for meeting the FMCA price anyway!! 6 new AH35's for $2300 mounted, balanced, disposal fee's etc.. Thanks for replies.
