Michelin 7.50R17 XCA tires found!

[JCMAC]

  Finally, after searching the entire USA and Canada with 0 tires found, then I found these tires in Mexico!  Mine just arrived here in the San Diego area with a mfg. date of 2513.  Wow, they were made this last June (in Germany).  I was going to have to settle for bias belted tires with poor tread design (not good in wet weather) or ones with a good tread but not DOT approved.
  If you are in the San Diego area contact Wayne Rhea at Preston's Tire, La Mesa, CA 619-460-8311.  For the rest of you in other areas, have your local Michelin truck tire dealer contact:

I put in an email to Kevin, haven't heard back, holidays I suppose. What did you pay for them? The last ones I could find earlier this year in the states were 400.00+ a piece!! Yikes.

HI,
  My two fronts were $395 ea. plus radial tubes, & flaps + messing with the split rims & $64 CA tax - $1,140    Then I splurged another $180 to have the front powder coated white    There is the best and then all the rest
