Simple Tires has an ad that I noticed at the bottom of the screen on the forum. Search by car nothing, searched rear tire size and got the non Scuderia Bridgestone as the only choice.

That's a google ad. I'm surprised anyone has ever scrolled that far down...

I ordered a set of Bridgestones from Simple Tire at the end of April. The Bridgestone Potenza RE050A 345/35R-19 rear tires I received were the Suderia version. They were manufactured about 18 months ago.

The Bridgestone Potenza RE050A 265/40R-18 front tires I received were manufactured about 3 years ago.

The set of tires was about $200 cheaper than Tire Rack.

Scuderia. There is no other version.

When I tried to buy some NT-01's for my Boss, Simple Tire stated that anything within 4 years was considered "New".

Asked for the date codes, by the time they got back to me Discount Tire had matched/beaten there price with 4 month old tires. Had them the next day.

Discount doesnt have the GT tires, but the 4 years old"new" from Simple didn't sound right. I'd be replacing four year old Bridgestone for my GT with 4 year old

Bridgestones. Worth checking before you purchase. my .02
