I've looked on many sites and mags and I can't find anywhere where it says that 4wheelparts owns procomp. I thought explorer pro comp owned pro comp. If 4wheelparts owns procomp, then why do they sell many other different kinds of tires?

If they don't own it...then the scam bust is not really a bust. Its 4wheelparts that marking up and lowering prices, not procomp

um no just how you wrote it is confusing as hell...lets see here i will do my own math that i did before i posted this

older add with out sale.... 32x11.5x15 A/T $555.96 for a set....

new "sale" 32x11.5x15 A/T $497.99 for a set....

$555.96-$497.99=$57.97 savings....

see the piont of the post was to say you dont get a "Free tire" being a normal single price of the 32's are $138.99 and the savings is $57.97 dollars that doesnt look like it equals out to a "free tire" and if you acully read my FIRST post i sayed you DO save some money i was NOT denying that, and it was also to PROVE that they raise the individual price during the "sale" higher from when its not on sale....so idk what your problem is really....

btw here is a quote direct out of my first post....

Free shipping isn't hard to get, so you can't take off X dollars for free shipping. Simple math shows that you don't get a free tire. Oh and also, when you used to buy 4 they had free mounting and balancing or something, they don't offer that on the price, so you pay extra fifty.

Good lord man drop it. You do not get a FREE tire. You save some money, but not the cost of a free tire.

Thank you come again.

hey man i give you facts and you get so mad you go on and talk me down. i have shown that at tirepackage.com and 4WP you save enough to make up the price of a tire. so good luck with whatever chip is on your shoulder.
your still forgetting the orginal intent they raise the individual price thats what the argument has always been about... you havent been around long enought there used to be huge yellings about it...and no i normally dont pay attention to you, do to the comments you have made like so...
