I got my last set through a local tire distributor, much cheaper than the big tire franchises who also load the price with a 'special order' fee.

Call Pete @ "The Tire Source" in CO, I just got a set of Toyo RA-1s from him, but he also handles Kumho; he has some MXes in stock (not sure on size) but I'm sure he has good kumho connections if they're not all back ordered to the factory.

Real good guy, good prices, I'm sure he wouldn't mind shipping or otherwise helping you out.

just used an office mates cell w/ free long distance. he can't get them now either. seems that they will not even be producing any until the "get enough of a demand". thats a crapper.

the 225's have been unavailable for about 3 months. ive been waiting since mid march to get them. most shops that carry kuhmo dont stock the mx in that size, even when they are available.
