[DML] Re: Recommended Tires & availability of Michelin Pilot XGT H4

["bepositive2000" <BePositive2000@xxxxxxxxx>]

All your posts regarding tires were timely:

I've tried about every brand of matched front/rear that's made 
dduring the time I've had my two D's.

By far the best combination of handling, life span and ride has bee 
the Michelin Pilot XGT H4's.  Recently, however, I have not been 
able to find the rear tires despite checking with several retail 
stores and distributors.  I was told the tire are no longer made in 
the 235's.

If there is a way to get the tires thru Canada, I'd like to know 
what needs to be done to place an order for a few.  

Also, are there any other sizes that might work safety-wise and 
profile wise?
