Dealership rebate offer I keep getting in my email

[Jens_sedanEX18]

I keep getting these rebate offers for all season Michelin tires from my local dealership. I don’t think I really need to replace my tires. My theory is they’re just trying to make money off me. I’ve had my car since June and I’m not sure how long the tires been on the car. It doesn’t say anything about them being replaced on the car fax report either. Granite it doesn’t snow in Florida so why on earth would I need all season tires?

Don’t you have the “unsubscribe” option at the bottom of the email?

You're just on their mass mailing list, it's not specifically directed at you.

IIRC... tires have a manufactured on date stamped into them. If they were OEM on your 2018; they should be fine so far as the age is concerned.

I feel strongly that this is a COVID-19 related thing to do with excess inventory and lack of $99 air filters being sold.

Yeah, I recognize it as the newfangled scheme they call "advertising." Their plot is to make you an offer that may look attractive, with the intent to lure you to come a store or dealership and then ask for your money in exchange for their wares. Then they will feast on your hard earned money while laughing all the way to the bank.

Targeted advertising. You're probably one of thousands who have received that.
