Tom,
I have used it. It could be done so much better. I have a long trail of emails between myself, FMCA, and Michellin on this program.
Executive summary:
FMCA does not give you a way to determine the program price prior to purchase. That gave me a problem. There is a pdf with prices and some tire sizes but they are not guaranteed to be the actual price you will be invoiced for AFTER you make the purchase. They would like you to make the purchase and then find out what you will have to pay. That did not set well with me. With a direct request to FMCA I was able to get the program price. My local Michelin dealer said they could not ge the program price, but the expected it would be less than they would charge me as an individual. Well, that turned out to be wrong. On the front tires the program price was considerably less than the local dealer, on the rear tires it was MORE. Go figure!
Here are two names and emails for you to contact:
FMCA Kathy Gebhart
kgebhart@fmca.com
Michelin Bill Walmsley
bill.walmsley@us.mechelin.com
Below was the pricing I finally got out of Michelin and local dealer -
I purchased the front tires and am waiting to get rears later as local dealer raised the price after giving me a written quote. I will not do business under those circumstances.
My fronts are 315/80R 22.5 XZA2 Load Range L Catalog Number 76184 9090 lb. maximum load
FMCA 586.18 and FED 52.83 plus mount and balance 38 plus disposal 1.35 plug stems 5.59 and tax at 9.5%
For 2 tires that seems to come to : $1,497.85
I did request and get very fresh date codes.
Good luck - Russ
