Talked to a local tire dealer who sells Kumho tires. Unfortunately, he doesn't have, nor does his distributor have the Kumho Radial 857's that I would want.

He can get them, but I'd have to pay the inbound freight. The out the door price for 4 Kumho Radial 857 195R14's is $680. This includes mounting and balancing.
