I had ordered a 7th LTX from Tire Rack to round out my set of 6 to 7 to go with the Alcoa classic I just got from Jim K. I figured a 12+ year old LRD spare on a steel isn't really a spare. Tire Rack told me 3 weeks ago it would be 6 weeks till Michelin did a new run. Now today I found out there will be no more made with the Raised Outline White Letter to match my other 6. So I called Michelin, who sent me to Coker (as they sold remaining invetory to them I was told), who just got out of the 'recently obsolete' tires and are now only on the realy classic stuff and redlines etc. Coker sent me to Quality tire as they sold them all to them, and I dead ended with no tire. I called my local Tire Rack installer, KO Tire and Kevin sent me to TCI who found some in LA or Vermont. So he will order one for me at full price, and I can't be concerned with date stamp at this point as I want 7 matiching tires. SO beware if your run these LTX M/S as the ROWL are done and I suspect the Blackwall is soon to be replaced by the new 'improved' model as well. If you need a blackwall or 2, hurry up and get them now while the gettin's good.
