Tire Rack doesn't even show it anymore.

When I checked with TR about a month ago, and they were "backordered". Contacted a local tire place last week and said they were discontinued. That said, I replaced all tires with P-Zero Russo's and so far like them a lot.

My local tire guy has some here, but he did say they may be gone in the near future, I called and asked him for you.

Don't buy them if they about to disappear from the market. You'll end up replacing 4 tires if one gets damaged.

Yeap. I already have a spare rear S-03 in the garage that has about 60% tread on it. Anyone want it?!?!? No need to keep it now. $100 shipped?

Guess I'll look at something else now.

Check ebay... I had the same problem with a set of tires and found 2 tires I need at a great price, in great condition with @ 90% tread left.
