I just ordered a set of 4 and will have them installed on Saturday. Many places have them in stock and Yokohama Canada claim they have no plans to discontinue this model. They cost me C$90/US$62.50 per tire plus C$10 per tire for installation and balancing. We Canucks do a fair bit of mail order from the USA, no reason you folks can't buy from up here.
