I just bought 4 here in Victoria. No idea if i was just lucky.

They replaced Agilis 61s that I wore right out (about 7-8 years old).

They are very smooth and quiet tires, I like them a lot, but if they
are like the 61s, and the tread pattern looks similar, then they will
not be very good in mud or snow.

Volks, does anyone know if Michelin has stopped  production of the
Agilis 81,
185R14C tire ?  The reason I'm asking is  a customer of mine went to
COSTCO
here in Ottawa, ON. over the past weekend to  get a set of four and
they told
him that they would have to bring the four tires  in from three
different
locations and they would not be able to honour their  lifetime road
hazard
replacement warranty due to the fact that Michelin has  ceased
production of these
tires.  True or not is the question ?
