And these tires are also disqualified from running any SCCA events now, and some of the local SCC events as well.

I guess..but, they already bought the original recalled set...so, they aren't really....uh...free.

Thanks for the heads up.

What?! It says you turn in your V710's which are discontinued, for a new set of V700's or Victoracers. Why the hell would Kuhmo give you two brand new sets of tires?

Consumers will be given the choice of a free replacement of the ECSTA V710 with either the ECSTA V700 or Victoracer. They will also be provided a free set of the modified ECSTA V710 upon its arrival.

Sounds like two set of tires to me...

****, wish I had spent the extra $100 and went with 710s. I would've gotten a free set of Ecstas for rain and a set of new 710s for dry. Bah!
