Hey all... I will cut to the chase and let you know that http://www.onlinetires.com has the 225/50/17 pilots for 173.00 ... the 235/50/17 are about 5$ more. Looks like shipping was about 60$ ... but once again it depends where you live.

I just ordered the 235s from Costco today ($210, includes mounting, balancing and roadhazard). Looks like the 225s are going to be on backorder for weeks. I went with Costco because of the roadhazard. Costco also had a 60$ coupon that expired today. I'm not sure if they would extend it since the 225 pilots are on backorder but it's worth a shot.

I hope this helps with those of you trying to get rid of your No Season craptenzas.
