I called my local VW shop and they can't get them either. He recommended a similar tire with a reinforced sidewal but the cost he gave me for mounting and balancing was almost $140 per tire. Which seems outrageous when Drew is paying $78. Eric where did you buy your tires? I can easily drive to Houston if I need to.

Great tires. They did a lot to fix the wind loading on the sides of the driving billboard. ATX BUS wrote: > Thanks Drew! I'll have to check into Hankook.
