It will probably go for much less than that. That said, those are REAL Michelins, whereas the Coker tires are reproductions. I have no idea whether Coker is capable of making tires to the same specs and of the same quality as original Michelins. I know I would pay more for originals, but I'd never pay $124 for reproductions, either. For the record, these tires used to sell for about $65 from Michelin. -- Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
