Time to replace Michelin xza3 275/80R22.5 Where to buy?

As the subject line says... Michelins have aged out. Did some Internet searches looking for best price shipped to me or my tire shop. Anybody got some suggestion? Will be in Phoenix area this winter. Home base is Denver/Colorado Springs area until January.

  • And if you are not an FMCA member it will pay you to become one. If you are buying 6 tires you will save the cost of joining many times over. The FMCA program explains exactly how to use the program. Simple and easy. You must go on a Michelin web site to find a participating dealer and they are everywhere one can find semi trucks go.

    Hello I am so glad this was posted now as I am looking for tires too.

    I looked at the FMCA and the Michelin web sites and found out that Michelin makes two tires for RVs the XZA3 and the XZE in my size 275/80R22.5 Load range H. I am sure there is more under the truck tire.

    That said, you,the OP,that you have the XZA3 how has that worked for you?

    If in Arizona I did a search there and there is a Lot of Michelin shops there there. Also the Freightliner shop in Tollison will sell them to you also they will provide a good service but not sure on price.

    I am looking to buy there, AZ, or Oregon in the spring if I head that way in 2014.

    Could you give me any price details?


    Thunder,

    I see Wolf above attached a 'clicky' to the FMCA program. As I recall, after the discount and the refund for my old tires (-$400) plus balancing, stems, taxes, etc. I paid about $6,100 for 8 tires which is about 762.50 each total.

    That is only a sample of some of the prices on some common tires there is more available.

  • If you belong to FMCA they say you can get a discount. I don't know how large it is, I belong but not available in my area.

    I just bought 2 new 275/70 22.5 Michelin XZA2 steer tires I think the initials are, reinforced outsides for $1381 balanced and mounted. Likely not a great price but compared at another shop and is the same. have to get 4 more before leaving, mine are at least 8 years old not sure about the inside duals.
