Steve Johnson laments: > > Yeah, and then you should sell your unused MXL's to a hungry starving 2WD > Vanagon driver so he doesn't have to look all over Hell and half of Georgia > to get another set. ;) > Just call Tire Rack. I bought three about 6 weeks ago. They were $74 each, plus $9 shipping the set. They sent them via ups and arrived in the morning two days after I ordered (I ordered as they were closing, so they arrived the day after they shipped). Saved 8.5% on sales tax. Went to my nearby economically disadvantaged area, and picked a used tire shop, and had them mounted and balanced for $8.50 a tire. Sears wanted $81.69 each, plus $10 (or $12) to mount and balance, and I would have had to pay the Governor 8.5% on top. Sears was the cheapest local I could find letting my fingers do the walking. I would suggest going mail order. Oh, I bought the 205/75 reinforced MXLs. I think the 185s are cheaper. -Jim macklow@sybase.com
