For sale 2 used Michelin 255/100R16 tires ready for retreading. $ 400. Located in Temecula, California. Contact Mike at info@szulc.info

Good job, Ward !!! It is easy to say for Michelin Americas to buy these tires in Europe and have them shipped over to the USA. One 255/100R16 has a weight of 40 kilos = 88 pounds and a diameter of 90 cm = 35 inches. It will be difficult to find a company who can send such a heavy and big object...

Not a correct translation by Google !!! Michelin Americas wrote: To get these products for your vehicle , you can only get them in Europe via the dealer of your choice: the internet or local network distribution and arrange shipping yourself.

Michelin sends now an e-mail saying: Bonjour Monsieur, Le pneumatique en 255/100 R16 XZL est disponible en Europe uniquement. Il n'est pas vendu au Canada. Pour pouvoir obtenir ces produits pour votre véhicule, vous ne pourrez vous les procurer qu'en Europe via le revendeur de votre choix ...

The search for tires has been successful ! For us who need these tires to know: 1/ Vrakking in the Netherlands sells Michelin 255/100R16 but only retreats. The other thing is they do not ship a small amount of these tires to the USA. Only an amount filling a sea container. They say that to ship...

Meanwhile I have received from Michelin Canada a message that I have to contact their Military department and probably will get the same request to confirm use is not for military purposes. Rather strange because any person can order these tires from a website in France and have them send...

Thanks for the responses.... Current status: Michelin Canada has now admitted that their statement that Michelin XZL 255/100R16 were discontinued is not true. They confirm they still are being produced and for sale in France for 538,80 each ( =588 US$ ) Before Michelin Canada wants to make...

More time doing research resulted in finding out that Michelin XZL 255/100R16 tires contrary to what Michelin Canada reports are still being manufactured and sold in Europe for € 538,80... See...

Thank you for the reply. Indeed, on the mentioned website a 255/100R16 Michelin tire seems to be available. However, Michelin Canada lets me know: "We apologize the 255/100R16 tires have been discontinued and stock is not available for retailers to order. We appreciate your business and thank...

I need two new tires on my Bremach expedition vehicle. Currently installed are Michelin XZL 255/100R16. They are not produced anymore. Which tire could replace them ?

Thanks, Mog: the first posting about the Bremach Bimobil is now on Other-Custom-Expedition-Camper

I travel all days of the year in a Bremach Extreme 4x4 loaded with a Bimobil camper in Mexico and the USA. If it is of any interest to the readers of this forum, I could explain more about this unique vehicle and the experiences I have with it.

Thank you, Yabanja...
