10" Kumho tires from JC whitney

Post by kevin.gailey »

FYI:
I ordered a Kumho 10" tire from JC Whitney on the 22nd of Feb but have not received it. I called customer service and they told me it was on back order. I called Kumho USA in Rancho Cucamonga and they told me they no longer make the 758 radial and 10" tire.
Needless to say we will not receive our Kumho tires from JC Whitney.

I also ordered a set from JC Whitney around the first of February.  After numerous delayed shipment notices, incorrect pricing, and general runaround...they went on backorder with no target date to ship.  I complained a bunch, and then cancelled the order.  I guess I rattled someone at JC Whitney because they sent me a nice gift certificate in the mail for my troubles.
I found the tires elsewhere online and got them from somewhere else.

So here are the places I have found that have tires or are receiving them shortly. They carry Falkens which look good.  They are both near Auburn California or are close, for all you NorCal folks.
(800) 992-7007 http://www.7ent.com/detail.cfm?pageid=2843   These guys are out of the Falkens, but will receive more in a few weeks.  They do have 2 of the Falkens  165 R10's in stock though...
http://www.minimania.com/web/Item/TIRE01/InvDetail.cfm    said they have Kumho's on back order, but they aren't available, but they do have yokohama A006 165/70 10 in stock 1 XXX-XXX-XXXX Kevin Gailey From:

I got mine from www.performanceplustires.com
They were $57 each, and shipping was $39 for 2.  I tried minimania.com, but the tires were $79 each and shipping was $57.  Got them within a week.  I called to make sure they had them - they were drop-shipped from a warehouse in Georgia.
