Webb Motorsports is trying to find them for me.

I want a NEW set, mounted, and shipped to my door before the 3rd of May.

Anyone have a source?

P.S. Tires.com is out of both, Mid June estimate.

Try Here: http://store.yahoo.com/urbanimport/konigwheels.html

kindof expensive though. I would suggest ordering wheels/tires separate and just get them mounted and balanced if you can't get a package deal. I got mine mounted and balanced at Tire Kingdom for $50 for all 4.

Check here for wheels: http://www.okmiata.com/p_index.html
Try here for Tires: http://www.vulcantire.com I think they maybe out of the Falkens though. This is where I got mine, can't beat $62 a tire!

Falken Azenis (especially 205/50/15's) tires are a real pain to get right now. Shipments arriving to the US are only filling back orders at best. If you plan on buying a set this year, your only chance of getting them is to place a back-order and wait. As demand increases, so does the price. Vulcan Tire has had the lowest price consistently ($62). Some places want $89. +++
Good Luck

Ken,

EVERYbody is backordered. I can't find them anywhere.

Oh well, just wait and hope.
