I just ordered my new Dunlop Roadsmart IV tires. The rebate is good through 11/30. If you buy just the tires, the rebate is $40. If you get anything else done as part of purchasing the tires, like installation, balancing, etc. then the rebate goes up to $60.

I advise you to check to ensure the place you plan to buy your tires from, is one that Dunlop accepts for qualifying for the rebate. For instance, Revzilla isn't accepted, nor is any other online source that I can find. I went to Cycle Gear to check the price online, and found the tires were $30-40 more per tire than Revzilla's price...even though they are owned by the same company. On a spur-of-the-moment decision, I stopped in to my local Cycle Gear store and talked to the manager...and she immediately matched the Revzilla price. So I was able to buy my tires, from the store I had planned to order them from...and get the rebate.
FWIW, I wrestled with which tire to buy. It was down to the Dunlop Roadsmart III and IV, and the Continental Roadattack III. I like the Conti RA III tires very very much. With the rebate, the new Dunlop RS IV tires were actually just a few $$ less...and I'll get to see if the newest technology has made a difference. If no difference, then I'll go back to the Dunlop RS III...for a hundred dollars less, or the Conti RA III tires. None of the others are on my radar.
I don't need tires today. I probably won't need tires till next January or February. But no one will have a rebate for months after I need tires. It makes sense to me to get them in my garage now, and save a few bucks.
If I run out of room in the garage, I can also put them in my living room with a sheet of plywood on top and use them as a coffee table. I'm sure the wife won't mind.
