Where to buy 20" Michelin Diamaris
 
I scanned the board, read people's comments, and have decided to put Diamaris on my new Style 168 wheels.
A number of posts mention Costco as a good place to buy the tires and I have had great luck with them in the past. I called my local Costco and they told me they only carry up to 19".
Has anyone been able to get 20" tires from Costco? Special order?
If that route is unavailable, any other suggestions? I have bought tires from Discount Tire in the past, but have not been particularly happy with them.
I am in San Diego.
Thanks for any help.

where to buy tires
 
Have you ever considered the toyo proxes from what I've read from other members they are just as good as the michelins and cost a lot less.
Here is a link of an online place that sell them. also that website also sells the michelins also if that what you have your mind set on. see for your self
Good luck

I just ordered a set of 20" staggered Michelin Diamaris tires from Costco... It does not show-up in their system so give them the sizes instead and they'll find it in the books.

check out a discounttire store (www.discounttire.com) ..most likely like any other store it'll have to be a special order for staggered tire sizes and discounttires sometimes can get tires next day...and since your in sunny san diego i'd go with the toyo proxes..they stick 1000 times better and also do well in wet/rain

I was quoted $1250 for a set of 19" V rated staggered Diamaris from my local Michelin dealer (includes balancing and mounting) - I've bought other Michelins there for my (ex)van, so they know me and gave me a pretty good price (I think) - Personally, I'd rather spend my money where I live and develope relationships - In the long run, I think I get a better return than just looking for the cheapest price. - Again, just my opinion.
