To the OP... It wouldn't hurt to check with FMCA for prices. Hopefully you will be able to find a reputable service center.
I ordered my new Michelins 5 weeks ago at the cost of about $680 a tire plus tax and mounting.
I had everything planned and organized to have my FMCA tires put on today. I arrived at the service center just before 8 AM for my 8:30 appt. I asked the manager to check the date codes and two of the 8 tires were from December 2012 and other other 6 were from Feb. 2013. I specifically asked for all "NEW" tires, I was madder than a wet cat. I refused all the tires.
Maybe my 7 yrs. old Michelins will get me through another year. I'm sick of service people who will tell you one thing and do another. I'm not a happy camper.
I'm in California and will start back to Tennessee in two weeks, I just may check there for new tires.

Update: The service center was able to fine two new tires so that I can have 8 new ones with all the date codes right around the end of Feb to early March which is acceptable to me.
Install will be Friday. Yay! We're getting ready to go on a 7,300 mile trip this summer so I'll be glad to have a new set of tires to replace my '06 tires.

The MIchelins tires were installed and balanced today. They put on new stems, my extenders were fine to re-use. They also gave me $50 per tire for the take-off's ($400). I'm glad that my dealer came through!
