Default Need Continental 18" tire

I scratched a front wheel several months ago. I bought a new wheel and had the tire and tire pressure monitor swapped over.

I have found a nearby shop that will repair the scratches in the rim and paint it so the damaged area cannot be found--he claims!

He wisely asks me to mount a tire first so the rim will not be scratched when mounting a tire later. I suppose the extreme low-profie tires are tougher to mount. I've ordered the spendy little tire pressure monitor from the dealership--nearly $180 but now need a tire. I want a Continental Conti-Touring P225/40ZR18 92 W CW 95 just like the originals so they will all match.

Please let me know soon if you know of one available. The locals all want in excess of $225 for one while I can get one from Tire Rack on the Internet for $179 delivered but I'd rather find one among us.

Thanks, Jim
