They're probably cheap in the states anyway, but in the UK you can now get them from COSTCO. They only do Michelin and previously only for cars, but now they do any Michelin tyre. The Pilot Power 2CT (even better than standard fit) rear is only £100 inc VAT! OK you have to find a fitter but that's only a tenner. I got mine through Universal tyres e-bay site for £130 (inc fit) and thought I'd done well.

get yourself to COSTCO.

Yeah, I guess you guys have been overcharged for tires for so long that when you get a fair price it feels like they're free. But hey, you lot still get a better deal on a plate of bangers and mash.

Just had a rear tire replaced (Pilot Power) and it cost me $295.00 fitted. That's $224USD or 119 pounds.

$235 for a pair shipped from Lithium Motorsports (US).

Their website was moving so might be best to call.

I think you actually need a 22mm allen for the front Tek.

I ordered my last set from Rodamoto in Spain. €210/ set plus a bit for shipping. I don´t bend over for the local dealers anymore.
