Anybody know of a good company to buy from?
Want to get the ContiGo 130/90 H 17 tire to use as a front tire.
only the v-rated version of this tire is sold in the USA.
thanks

Your looking for a Canadian dealer in MC tires or CT?

You're in Jersey, so where are you looking in Canada for a dealer, East coast, West coast or?

You mentioned V rated, are you looking for price or a different rated tire?

That was my first thought, but he spelled tire with a lower case T, so I think he is looking for a source of the tire he wants in other than V rating, but they don't have them in the US. Unless he's on a trip in Canada and needs a new tire now.

But I'm in Vancouver, and he's in Jersey (east coast) and I don't know if the same tire stores here are the same as the east coast (other than Canadian Tire).

I haven't found ContiGo, but have found Continentals at Canadian Tire.

The official contigo dealer in Canada is parts-canada.  They only have what they show in the catalogue and will not order anything else. 
http://www.partscanada.com/catalogue/2010/mcv2/en/pages/0058.html
You will notice no prices are posted so they can charge you the maximum humanly possible. 

The only one is the 130/90-17 68V.

Not much help here sorry.

yes looking for the H-rated version of that tire. will be using it for a front tire and it has a 26.85 OD stock oem is 26.90
for some reason continental USA only imports the v-rated version. So my only option is outside the USA.  found a few companies in england, but the shipping cost is high, so I'm trying to find a canadian company. My searches so far seam to indicate that only the v-rated is avail in canada also.
