here is a link for you

https://www.tiresavings.com


Its 102.00

I have had the tire for a rear now and am not totally sold on it for twisty riding but its great in rain, braking and absorbs potholes really well.  I wish I could have found Joe's tire when I was looking locally.

I do believe Misfit still has one and also Therapist

I have over 25K on the Toyo Proxes T1R. Best car tire i have tried so far. Great in all riding conditions. Need to replace in the next week or so as edges are thin. I would try treaddepot.com , I purchased 4 Toyo tires from them for my wifes truck. Good prices and fast UPS shipping.

Give Kingbee (Walt) a shout. I think he still has one with only a couple hundred miles on it he was talking about selling a few months ago.
Considered pert near new. He decided to put a 200 series MC tyre on.

Went with Treadepot.com  The price I found with tiresavings.com was 129, not 102.  I liked the fact that treadepot is owned by a guy that owns a chain of tire stores in the south.  For some reason I would rather buy from a company in Georgia than California.  Hmm, no good reason for that.  ended up costing me 130 delivered.  Getting it mounted on my rim tomorrow.
Thanks - Al

Bridgestone Potenza G109 Grid 205-60-16. Handles great in all conditions. Rubber compound is 460, I think. Soft for cornering, stable under all conditions. great rain tire, etc. Hooked on the darkside.
