The Costco store I went to (San Jose, California) said they could order for me.
But they quoted crasy prices such as $180 per tire. Costco is no longer my choice
for tires. My last purchase of tires was for my Passat. Was it because of currency
or what? I paid a crasy price for the tires that almost wore out in 30k miles.
Not because I dislike Costco or anything like that. But if you walk in and found
no suitable tires you have to walk out and leave.
