The $100/tire can only be expected if tread still has "nipples" and less than 100 miles but it varies from store to store and their local market.
Yeah, I tried to work it out a few days before I took delivery. I was willing to drive it straight from the dealer, about 7 miles away. I told the store manager about all the reports online, and he said every store is different based on local market conditions. He said that to him tire trade ins aren't very valuable and they are just basically treating the credit as a discount.
Yep, things vary. I have 20,000 on my Michelin Primacy in my hybrid lariat first edition 55k tires. But that's down to 2/32" tread and I normally replace at 4/32" and they only have 8/32" new.

And truth be told, I was going to buy the tires and I was willing to cast these off even for nothing. But I wanted to get the best deal possible, purchase price with trade in credit.

I'm at 46,000 miles on my Maxxis RAZR AT's. Last quarter of life. Will replace before the winter. Now what to buy next?
) 75k warranty with 11/32" tread. I really like Discount and their certificates so who knows which way I will go. I might even consider UTIRES.COM.
