10 Tell the dealer you will be purchasing your tires with your Michelin (Ship-To) account. You will need to provide this number to the dealer. The dealer should give you an ESTIMATE on the price of the tires when you make your first call to them. The ACTUAL discounted tire price will be shown on the invoice that you receive from Michelin a few days after your tires have been installed. Any fees for mounting, balancing, state and local taxes and tire disposal are extra and quoted locally by the servicing dealer so those fees are not included in the discount program. Complete the Purchase with credit card After the work is finished, you will need to provide the dealer with your VISA, MasterCard or American Express credit or debit card information to complete the transaction at the servicing dealership. You will only provide the dealer with the name on the card, first digit, last four digits and expiration date of the card that you pre-registered. Your credit card will be billed by Michelin, so do not be surprised if you get an invoice from the dealer with a zero balance or an inflated balance. Your credit card will be billed the discounted price, not the inflated price. You should receive your invoice within seven business days from the date of purchase. The transaction is now complete. Enjoy your Sales! 10
