Not that I know of and I have been buying from them for the last 6 years. They do honor other discounts. Costco now has $70 off some tires and they will honor that, (It is not for Treea Grapplers though). Look at some discounts in the paper, that may help.
Every once in awhile they will have some special deals, of course it is never when you need some tires.

As a suggestion, I just recently ordered some Destination A/Ts from a Firestone store. I asked about price matching. They don't "match" necessarily, but asked what I was looking at and I mentioned the much lower price Tirerack.com was selling them for. They immediately said they could give me the tires for $143.95 rather than their $159.95 price tag. Tirerack was $142 I think.
Tirerack.com seems to be way cheaper given that it is an online shop. Obviously you'd have to ship and then pay someone to install, but if you can try to negotiate using their prices with a brick and mortar store, well you'd be getting the best of both worlds. Just my two cents but probably worth you putting a feeler out to see how much they'll move on prices.

Another thing, they will ask you if you want their protection for the tires. If you say "no", they lower the price. Now, if you want the road hazard protection or not, it is up to you.
I did get that protection on my last set of tires on the 2001 4Runner. They offered it for $16 a tire and I said no, of course they lowered it to $10, which I knew they would and I thought to myself, why not since they are expensive tires. Well, I got a nail on the side and they replaced it. They did charge $16 for a new warranty on the new tire, I didn't argue too much.
I usually don't get the road hazard protection.
