Where to purchase Kenda Kanine rear tire?

[Snoking1127]

Well, I ordered my Riken rear, and picked it up from tirerack's distribution center. Now, I have to get it mounted. I need to find a local shop who is willing to do the fun part. There is 1 shop I know of that might do it. About an hour away. So, I may take the ride, but their wknd hours are limited. Would have to figure it out for a weekday. Gotta work
I called around about the Kanine late last year when they were on back order. I think I will go the way of many here and give the Qs a try on the front. Anyone in North Ga\Metro Atlanta region know of any decent mom and pop shops? I like the folks I mentioned a couple of statements up, but trying to get there during the week is becoming more logistically challenging. Plus, don't want to risk getting them in trouble with the folks in suits.

They say the rear tire is a pretty easy FIY with a set of tire spoons, as it has a good drop center area. One just has to be able to break the beads loose. This is how I break the back bead on my SxS bead loc rims.

Why would you want a Kenda when the are far superior car tires out there for way less $$?

That is the same question that was on my mind. Why stress onself out trying to find a crap tire, when there are a number of readily available honest-to-gosh very good car tires out there for about the same money. And there are dealers out there - and I think more are starting to - that will install them. Maybe try doing a search for dealers within, say 100-150- miles from you, call each one, and you might get lucky.
