$72 a piece y0

I ordered earlier in the summer and they were on backorder forever. Im sure the demand drove the supply higher then anticipated and now they are trying to clear them out with fall and winter on the way. Take advantage.

Man I wish my dunlops doesnt last that long. Jon how'd you like the wet grip and road noise of 615? The 215 hummed at 50mph and nearly owned me running over a pond on freeway last year.

i have no complaints with the 615s. I don't think the road noise is that bad. The noise they do produce those is different then the humming i usually get from others too. That could be from the road surface here as well, lots of horse and buggies and steel wheeled farm equipment make the roads very very flat.

Aren't they always $70ish??? I thought I paid that when I got mine earlier this year.

Anyhow, sticky, cheap, short lived street tires=

Good price. I used to get them at a cheaper price through my friend at Disc. Tire.

Yes, but they dropped all the prices last January. They've been selling for $74/tire ever since. So the "special" is two bucks off.

Yeah, they are one of the loudest tires on the road. Unless you're used to running huge jeep mud tires or something...

Im sure the length of time you have in mind wouldn't be a concern for storing them.

The only reason that keeps me from get Azenis again is the road noise. For daily driving its horrible.

I really don't notice any noise on my 215's.

My buddy just got some 615's, can't wait to try them out.

i've had a set of 615s on my car for 10k or so, all street miles unfortunately and the only time I hear anything from the tires is when I drive over a painted surface. I hear more tire noise from my beater altima with all seasons. . .
