The Michelin tires are OEM, so you KNOW they work...... From what I read on the conti site, they should also work. The 395's seem to be much more of a grey area. The idea of over 4k for 6 tires makes my hair stand up on end. Gotta pay to play, I guess.

where'd you buy'em, and what'd you pay? (if you're willing to share)

The unbelievable cool factor **almost** makes it worth it :)

Don't buy it before you have a way to insure it and get it home.:razz:

sooooo.....I need 2 tires to get HOME short term, then 6 very expensive tires for an upgrade. Argh...... I'm starting to see why they talk about green $o much here.......

Can someone tell a newbie what the difference between the 14.5x20 XL michelins and a 1400x20 tire is? Will the 1400x20 tire fit on an A3 stock rim, and without lifts, etc.

My M109a4 at Meade didn't need one either. Paid the invoice, went down and got it....sorta

Another thread has a member who tried Viking Insurance. They will not underwrite in the People's Republic of Massachusetts. :( Can a MA member chime in here with a valid company and an agent with a clue?

^ Too bad State Farm isn't writing in Massachusetts. If my wife and I had more portable professions....we'd MOVE.

In MA, it doesn't MATTER what the LAW says; it matters what the political HACK/bureaucrat says that goes. I do NOT like it, but that's just the way things work here. I wonder if it would be possible to register it as an RV since it has a van body, and just be done with it.....

I don't WANT that kind of character ;)

I just got home a few minutes ago, another 21 hour day....second in a row. As far as the quote above.....The man has a singular gift for understatement. My insurance agent, who PROMISED me a binder for my ride home today, FAILED. The idea of driving 16,580 pounds (I parked on the GL scale :)...

Encompass and Safety turned me down too! NOW WHAT:cry::confused:?

At this point I will put ANY plate on it. I have 3 vehicles insured in MA with Amica, who I've had since I was 16!

Nationwide, declined. Understand, I have a flawless driving record going back over 10 years. I mean, WTF.

Grundy declined to insure it, too large, and 'not a collectible vehicle' Anyone else got any ideas? Have I mentioned THIS SUCKS!
