Default Where to get toyo RA-1s

So tirerack doesn't have them
Google has found a few places but I dont want to jump to buying a set for $700 if they can be found for less
205/40/17

would just a local tire place be just as cheap if they have them?

I have 4 used ones in that size that would be good for practice sessions.
I am in Atl so we would have to ship them.
Let me know if you are interested.

lapp,

I will have to double check when I get home - I haven't pulled them out of the basement in a few months. They started out shaved, used them a couple of weekends and then had them flipped on the rims ( I will unmmount them if you want them)
Let me check on the tread tonight and I will PM you.

Albert

you can get em @ teh tire shop @ buttonwillow. They offer shaving if you need local.
Last time I checked they were within a few bucks as the online places.
