They may not be available in the US but in Canada I was able
to order Agilis 51 in 215/65-15. I bought mine from my local
Canadian Tire store.

Be careful of two things:

1) MSRP Price: Originally Agilis 51's had insane they wanted
$250 CAD per tire (And that was just last year). I spoke to
a Michelin rep at the Toronto Auto Show in February who told
me the new catalogue has new prices more in line with what
they sell for. I picked mine up for something like $180 CAD.
I heard the 205's sell for $100 US when they are on sale.

2) The Canadian Michelin Catalogue has the Agilis sharing
page with some other tire, and the name is REALLY small. It
makes them hard to find. Three times in three different
stores I had to find it for the salesperson, who said "They
aren't in the catalogue".

As for the Agilis 61's lack of sidewall figure. You'll note
that stock tires also ommit it. I have seen 82 as the
sidewall figure for stock tires so I bet its the same.
Incedentally, 185/82-14's are wiithin 1% of the diameter of
215/65-15's.

Thanks,
Chris
