It looks like the Pilot A/S is being discontinued in the 245/50/17, and is not being made in the A/S Plus. The options for the RL are very limited. HAs anyone used Costco for tires? Any issues with install or TPMS?

 

I did in 2006, no problem at all.

 

So just out of curiosity, did you buy standard sized tires, or something different. My Costco had a policy of not ordering tires that were not an OEM published size. For example, I went from 205-60/15 to 225/50-16 and was told no way. The only published 16 inch size was 215-55/16. Sorry.

Of course, that was years ago....maybe they are more lax now.

 

The 17" OEM size is very odd and there are few choices. Here are the choices offered by the Tire Rack:

Really sad that there are no real options since the OEM are terrible. The A/S are being discontinued and the A/S plus is not being made in the OEM size. As of yet no discount on this size while all others are discounted 20-30%. Onlinetires.com offers the Versado but that is more touring. If I had the 18" there are many performance options most under $200. Costco quoted $197 on the phone, but it was $247 when i got here for the A/S. I left, and will wait to see if Tirerack drops the price
