Tim,

The 205/70 - 14 MXT is discontinued.  There are still some in the field, but
they are hard to find.  I have been round & round with Michelin over this
and it turns out that the 185-14 Agilis is the correct replacement at this
time.  I was concerned that they would look dorky on the alloy wheels, but
it turns out the look OK.  I love the tires.
