That's because they're swamped, all because of the $100 rebate deal that's going on for Labor Day. Read the last post in this thread, I picked up a set of tires for the car and got the $100 gift card rebate and $40 off the price ($10 each tire), saved $140 on the set.

The $100 deal is good today, 9/03/12, tomorrow is too late.

post pictures! I couldn't get the ATP's because I got 70 sidewall..I don't know the difference to be honest. But I have AT3's in 265/70/16 en route. Can't wait to mount them at work next week!

Not sure about the difference but there are several tire calc links around. I will try to get something up later today. We had bad storms last night and land lines are down.

As I recall... the middle number is the percentage of the 265 in height. So 265/70 is 185.5mm tall. A 265/75 is 198.75mm tall. So you're looking at about a half inch taller tire.
