Thread: Experience with EdgeRacing.com?

  1. #1

    Default Experience with EdgeRacing.com?

    I'm looking at ordering a set of Toyo T1Rs from them for $96/tire, shipped. I've got a buddy that will mount 'em for me.

    BTW, Discount Tire wanted $125/tire + all their BS...

    Must be smaller tires than the ones I got last month. I got a price of about
    129 a tire in 235/40/17 size on Edge and told the manager at Discount. I said if he can match that plus 100 for mounting balancing and roadside warranty we'd have a deal. Originally, Discount quoted me a price almost 200 higher, but they matched edge plus 100 for the rest.

    Anyway, since Edge has a history of database protection failure, (search it on Miata.net)...

    I've not had any problems with Edge Racing. I have purchased several sets of tires from them.

    Looks like Edge has their shit together now, but I'll phone in my order just to be on the safer side.

    I ordered wheels and tires from Edge Racing earlier this year and they came in just as advertised. No problems here.

    Default Edgeracing was hacked.

    Never said they would screw the order up. Phoning them didn't help either because they would type your info into the same database used by their site.
    I'm just warning you to keep an eye out for any charges on your card statement that you didn't authorize. I would think by now Edge has secured, if not removed from the internet entirely, their database.

    I was looking for info about service but the security issue arose after I saw your post. I did some digging on the pointy board and found threads about the security problems. That seems to be resolved (and from what I understand, they were only having problems with orders placed over the internet). Regardless, I'll be keeping an eye on my credit card account for any nefarious activity.

    Honestly, I never would've thought to ask about Edge except that I've never used them, and Goodwin (which I've previously had good experience with) didn't have a good deal on the Toyos by themselves. Plus, my local Discount store gave the runaround on the T1Rs and now wants to upsell me to some new Toyo tire... which they'd still have to special-order. Pffft.
