TBC launches Sumitomo rebate program

PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. (Sept. 3, 2014) — TBC Corp. is making it possible for motorists to “Enhance your Drive, Enhance your Savings” with a mail-in rebate promotion.

Consumers purchasing a set of four Sumitomo HTR Enhance performance touring tires between Sept. 1 and Oct. 17 qualify for a $50 VISA prepaid gift card. Sumitomo Rubber Industries Ltd. released the HTR Enhance in April, calling it the “most technologically advanced tire from Sumitomo.”

The HTR Enhance features the tire maker's “Confidence Enhanced” best-in-class warranty package, which includes extended mileage treadwear coverage along with a free 45-day test drive, two-year roadside assistance coverage and one-year road hazard protection coverage.

The tire features 60 T, H, V and W rated sizes in 15- through 18-inch rim diameters. According to Sumitomo, the HTR Enhance “is engineered to perfectly align with both the sophisticated performance capabilities of later model vehicles and the increased consumer preference for tires that offer an optimum blend of extended tread life, agile handling, all-season traction capability and refined ride comfort.”

Additionally, TBC said, the HTR Enhance size lineup is tuned for specific vehicle applications and fitments, with the Enhance L/X

designed for passenger car use and the Enhance C/X made for the performance and durability requirements of crossovers and SUVs.

“The Enhance is the perfect choice for drivers looking for top-tier quality and technology, precision performance and warranty protection at a price that offers an exceptional value,” said Jon Vance, senior director of product marketing for TBC Brands.

“With this rebate offer, we are very pleased to offer consumers this opportunity to save on their purchase and experience the value of the HTR Enhance for even less.”

To download the official rebate form for mail-in redemption, HTR Enhance purchasers can visit Sumitomo's website or the TBC website. Along with the completed rebate form, customers must submit the original store receipt for the purchase of four HTR Enhance tires.

Palm Beach Gardens-based TBC Brands distributes a portfolio of brands that include Multi-Mile, Eldorado, Sumitomo, Harvest King, Power King and Towmax.
