TRX tires and wheels (archive)

Hey, all:

I found a couple of 240/45ZR/415 TRX tires, one from a dealer for $229 (ouch!) and one from someone on this board for $100 (thanks). Tire Rack told me that Michelin is no longer making TRX tires, and that Coker has bought the molds. I called Coker and they wanted $314 for the tire (double ouch!).

By the way, the TRX tire listed on Tire Rack's web page and the tire my dealer found are identified as "GT" tires, while the tires on my car are not. Does anyone know if there's any difference? I hope not . . .

I continue my search for non-metric wheels identical (or at least very close) to the OEM wheels, and so far the used wheels at BMWheels in Fresno, CA seem like the best bet. Does anyone have any experience with them?

Thanks,

Chris
