    I hope you are all sitting down...Prevost TN wants......wait for it....$8159.00 plus tax for all 8 tires and mounting / balancing. I think that is way high, but have not gotten any other prices yet.

    I thought they were going to be more reasonable, but Keith told me they are NOT a tire dealer and only carry tires as a customer convenience. WOW!

    I priced a Michelin XZA2 today in OHIO, mounted $774.00 ea. so times 8 = $6192.00.

    Kauffman Tire, Ravenna, OH 1-330-296-6428, might be worth the trip? I think that included tax.

    Forgot to say their price for Continental HSL1 Coach in 315/80x22.5 is $650.00.

    I would go with that but dealing with matching due to a failed tire.

    I didn't notice what size you were pricing when I posted, hope my size is relevant to your need.

    Was that for the 365's or the 315's? I ran out of time this afternoon to do any shopping.

    I priced 2 Michelin 365/70R22.5 steering tires (XZA2) here in Houma, LA. $2280 for 2 tires (tax, balanced, and mounted). The TCI store said they didn't have any in stock nor did their surrounding stores. The tires would have to be ordered directly from Michelin.

    I am glad I have 315s on the front. I don't want to do the update: too expensive and too difficult to locate in case of a blow out on the road. 315s are not that easy to find either in case of a blow out on the road.

    Prevost Mira Loma has been very competitive with their pricing. Try to get three seperate prices in your area for the same tire. Then it will be easier to make the decision.

    I think you will be hard pressed to find 315 XZA2's for less than 750.00 - 800.00 now with current date codes. Stick with the XZA2 and not the cheaper regional tire.

    Checking with my tire guy this morning on tires for my personal car.....he says Michelin announces a ....12 %.... price increase effective today. Usually they were given advance notice and increase would be effective at a later date. No more, reason raw materials ?

    Not sure if this is the appropriate thread to post, but is anyone running the wide base (14") singles on the drive? The simplicity of it all is certainly attractive. Weight capacity could be a problem on some coaches @ 12500# each.
