I got some of the last MXT's that the Tire Rack could round up a few
years ago. I absolutely love them. They're on my 89 Westy and seem to
be wearing well.
They are not winter tires but are great on wet roads.
I'd run those til they wear out and then throw the others on. The MXT's
are most likely older and should be used first.
