Larry's seems to be the only official dealer on Kumho USA's website...

the Kumho direct dealer on beretania(sp?) is expensive!!! They wanted to charge me $225/tire + shipping for my kumho MX's and he wouldn't price match tireracks price. I just went with tirerack and got a set of kumho MX's 225/45/17 for $520 shipped. Also try emailing my friend at sypher808@hotmail.com he has the hookups at tirerack.

Wink Kumho

I called the same guy today and I asked him if he was crazy and did he know that he is charging twice as much as other places. i told him I would buy tires somewhere else for the Kumho 711 (ex) 225/45/17 for 70.00 x4 = $280.00 + shipping = 341.66 he wanted $135.00 a piece well I ain't no rocket scientist but that would equal a lot more.
