Weird. The catalog I got has an S6 avant on the cover...and when I go to the
website, you guessed it!

Anyone own a Volvo Laplander? If you do, surf over to tirerack.com and see
what shows up! I'll bet it's SUV tires! :)

Talk about one to one marketing! Damn, they're good!

...but seriously, I was a bit surprised to receive a tirerack catalog in the
(postal) mail only a couple of days after I spent some time on their
website. Coincidence, maybe, but for those of you that don't know - this is
entirely possible even if you don't register or order anything on their
website!
