For those of you that have done it...How did you fill out the free front tire coupon?

They say that you have to pay the $20 for shipping, but there isn't any place to put your credit card number. They provide a space for the card type and expiration date only. Am I missing something? I would think that they want the card number, right? I could easily just write it in, which I'll probably do, but I was wondering what the rest of you guys did.

Thanks.

I just wrote it on my coupon. It did take about 3 weeks to get the tire but hey its free and roads are still crappy here any way.

Still waiting on my front too. The sad part is the weather is perfect for riding! I want to get both installed at the same time so now my bike sits .......(I was commuting to work but now I think the rear has had it!)

I went to their web site last night. They had a note saying that due to overwhelming demand, supplies for the free front tire have been exhausted and they are no longer running the promotion as of 03/19. Sorry to say, but if you haven't got a tire already, you may be SOL. I sent my coupon on a few weeks ago and am hoping I'll still get the front tire.

Check your credit card acount info- Mine was charged on 2/25 and I got the tire about 3 weeks later.

I guess I should be happy! Got mine about a 1 1/2 months ago with a added deal of a set of Corsas with the same deal! Installed the Corsas first, hope I am not disappointed with the Diablos.

DAMN IT! I'm still going to send in the coupon. I actually bought the rear Diablo tire on Feb. 26th but it was out of stock. It was just shipped to me on Friday. It will be here on Thursday...I've been waiting for the damn original receipt!!

I'm going to be so bent outta shape if they stiff me on this. I bought my rear and sent off my coupon weeks ago! I checked my credit card statement online and NO BILL for shipping from Pirelli. I've e-mailed them my concerns. We'll see what happens. I'll be so mad if I have to order the front and have to pay for it! My bike has been sitting all week 'cuz I wanted to mount both tires at the same time!!

That was probably their plan in the 1st place. Get everyone to buy their back tire then "sorry our supply of 20 free front tires is depleted" and now you have to buy the front tire.....you already have the back one!...A$$holes.

Hate to say it, but they did say in their little form that you go through to get the coupon that this is is "while supplies last". Its a chance you willingly took. They didn't make you do it or make any promises to have an endless supply of front tires. I chose not to do it for this very reason. Although my next set of tires is still going to be a set of Pirelli Diablos

I understand the "while supplies last" BS, but I sent in my coupon the first of March, the promo was to last to March 31st, and I've received no response what so ever! If Pirelli would have told me I missed the special via e-mail or letter, I probably wouldn't be so pissed. I would've bought the front two weeks ago! Instead, I don't hear from them, I wait patiently for almost a month, and I hear via
Badweb that I'm screwed. Not a brilliant customer realations move IMHO. I think they've lost more future buyers than gained.
