I don't think so. Price of rubber will continue to go up. Tire prices are expected to rise close to 5% by '23 vs '18. Demand for both top tier and low end tires remain so overall there is not a time of yr where prices go down. It's a matter of who among at the retail end will give up margin. I $hop and ask if they could beat their competitor's prices and that's where I go. Also, mfrs adjust production and distribution of summer/winter tires so its not an issue for them to pivot and avoid having to apply discounts.
