Thumbs up Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+ on Sale

Just a heads-up that both Michelin and Tire Rack have a combined deal on Pilot Sport A/S 3+ tires. These are top-shelf UHP all-season that are being cleared for the new model. Other models may be on sale too, but I did not care. The discount varies on the tire size, so your mileage may vary. The Michelin Visa gift card offer $40-$120 depends on your total order amount and runs from 8/12/20 – 8/31/20. Hope this helps.

Want to share a breakdown example (YMMV):

Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+ 255/40ZR18 95Y
$206.99 - $83.89 closeout = $123.10 X 2 = $246.20 + $14.78 tax + $1.60 fee = $262.58 shipped free - 3% Rakuten - $40 Visa = $214.70

Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+ 285/35ZR18 97Y
$270.99 - $105.76 closeout = $165.23 X 2 = $330.46 + $19.83 tax + $1.60 fee = $351.89 shipped free - 3% Rakuten - $40 Visa = $301.33

Total deal: $516.03 (49% off from regular $1,016.52)

Super good deal. I have these on currently and they’re nice rubber. A little marshmallow-ey in turns but that’s probably what you get with being an all-season.

Agree. I used these once or twice. Arguably a good compromise between a grippy tire for acceleration and stiffer tire for cornering. Like them better than Conti DWS 06.

Nice, I just pulled the trigger on these - but :sad: because I bought prior to the rebate. Oh well, I still got a good discount. I will use them with my stock wheels as my "winter set." Then I will go more aggressive rubber on some aftermarket wheels. Just can't decide what wheels I want to buy.

You can still claim the Visa rebate based on the fulfillment date on the invoice, which can be later and hit in the rebate range. If you ordered from Tire Rack, you can pull the invoice from My Account > Orders and Tracking > Full Order Details > Email Me A Copy Of This Invoice. Another point, if the closeout price drifted down slightly since your order, you can call Tire Rack and ask for credit. This is what I just did, and it worked. No point to leave money on the table. With or without the rebate, it is a great deal. Best of luck.
