Just had my 8 Michelin 275/80R22.5 LRH #66205 X Line Energy Z tires installed Friday for $543 per tire. FMCA discount price was higher at $556.59.
When shopping, I got even lower from the Michelin Dealer closer to our house at $535 per tire, but I couldn't get in his drive because of the angle.
The commercial tire dealer I went to is an authorized Michelin retailer, and when I said my tires age out rather than wear out he new exactly what I meant. He ordered me fresh tires that took a week to arrive, and they are all date coded 12/19 or 5 weeks old.
Before you throw out the FMCA number at the front desk, ask for their price first. It might surprise you. Once you pull out your FMCA price list, they are obligated to stay with that price, even it is higher than they would have sold it to you for to begin with.
