Not bad but how do these compare to the F1 Supercars ( which are currently $149.95 on TireRack)?

FYI that's the going rate for the EVO'S across the board...even the rebate expired,you can definitely find similar deals at Discount tire with free shipping and rebate.    http://www.discounttiredirect.com/direct/findTireDetail.do?ra=searchTiresByVehicleAndSize.do&fl=&yr=2013&pc=19905&counter=0&ar=45&rd=20&vid=022581&cs=245       Tire rack       https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Hankook&tireModel=Ventus+V12+evo2&partnum=445YR0K120XL&vehicleSearch=true&fromCompare1=yes&autoMake=Ford&autoYear=2013&autoModel=Taurus&autoModClar=SHO            They are certainly great tires to say the least and have sponsored them for quite sometime now.  Z

Thanks. I only average 10k Miles per set so going with something more expensive is just a waste of money.

I guess it is about the going rate. Buying them from Walmart you get the best price on install and free rotation etc. Not sure how thrilled I am about them doing the install, but it would be over $200 less than a local tire shop quoted me.

At the end of the day it boils down to a few dollars if you consider tax,fees,install and etc,not going to dispute over a few bucks and best of luck to ya .Z

I suggest checking the model number just to make sure that they aren't a V12 made for Walmart.  With many products, the big box stores have them made to their specifications (never better) so they can buy them for less.

I once bought Goodyear Eagle GT+4's for my '89 SHO from Sears.  Roughly 7 Interstate speed blow outs later, Sears bought the tires back from me.  I took the money to Tire Kingdom and bought the exact same tires (with a different model number) and never had a problem again.
