I checked everything I could find online. Anybody got a link to share because everybody seems to be out of stock for the size I want which is 150/80-17, and sure hoping it would be south of $200

Well I purchased a set last year and saved a lot using this rebate. Yes I know you need a front tire but the rears wear so quickly, I got the new one sitting and ready for install.

Chap Moto, $327 for the set. $11 cheaper than AMT but... Be sure that you get radial version and on a note, I don't know how the Exedras Max work on a Valk. I assuming it's a harder wearing compound but again I don't know. Basically the 701/702 are OEM tire that performs excellent IMO.

$314:

I got a set of Cobras last year and they seem to be holding up very well after 10,000 miles. I like the grip and rain performance of these tires. As a Note, This is the first time I have every had Avon tires. Not a fanboy just read reviews and everyone seems to be liking these tires.
