I know they are discontinued but dealers have only reduced them to 300 - 320. So for $200 bucks I would give them a shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At $200 for the 18" is the cheapest ive ever heard of.Though there are better tyres out there, for some reason ppl on here bag out the Dunlops. Very impressive in the wet.I.B.
