Same for me ... I had read here it was $50 per tire, but my rebate form came in email today and was $50 per set of 2 tires. I searched elsewhere and see $50 per set of 2 tires as well. Still a good deal, but not the rebate I had understood.

I ordered from Jake Wilson but used the Bridgestone rewards@bridgestone site to file my rebate. $50 per set. Great deal for some very good tires! Delivered in 48 hrs. with free shipping. Hard to beat any of that transaction!

Older thread, but I too, just saw the T-30 EVo for our bikes and was wondering about them. Gone through a few sets of T-30's and get the same mileage as from the RP3/4's, with no complaint of feel or rain traction with a lesser hit on the wallet. 6-7500 per rear at 42 psi always. I wish that there was more information on these tire threads of how the new tyre mounted, some can be a sum-bi**h. I order my new tires a month or so in advance, block them open about four inches, and make sure the rubber is very warm just before mounting, still there can be thrown tools, etc even when using a No-Mar.

Now that I have close to 1000 miles on these T30 EVO GT's I can say I like them more every time I get out on them.
The tires seem to grow in to the rim the first 300 miles and stick to the road really well. Quick turn in's without much effort while pressing into corners.
Perform great on the decreasing radius ramps under gradual acceleration where you need to get out quick in the small gaps left on the interstates in Chicagoland traffic.

Good bye PR4GT's

Just replaced a rear T30 EVO GT with 4,051 miles on it. It was at the wear bars. This is about normal tire mileage for me. If I want a tire to wear more I have to slow down and baby it a bit, not as much fun!

I have the rebate, Have the rear mounted with 2135 kms on it now and wearing well. Grips the road as hard as I wish to ride so all great for the price and then a rebate, great deal.

I have these on the bike, both front and back. 3000km and wearing well. But I don 't ´usually´ ride too aggressively They grip well. No issues, other than a recent puncture that my fellow Canuck,cdemsguy, repaired.
Still holding

And those things happen, hope it still is holding and if so it will hold until that tire is worn out, although the warranty expired after the 5th tire rotation, or the first 5 feet, whichever happened first. Hope all is well.

Hey Skulldigger, do you have any experience with the T30 Evo GT's in the rain?
My new-to-me '05 has BT-023 GT's now but they won't last another season. The PR4GTs are mighty pricey but all the bikes here seem to love them.
