anyone else experiencing a hard time getting the Michelin primacy 235 50 20? Walmart is out, CarID out and tire rack out or super long delay . Anyone else have luck ?

Or anyone know of a similar smooth substitute?

Check Costco, Sam's Club, BJs, Discount Tire.

Perhaps Cross Climates 2 or Defender?

Sams Club is out of stock, BJ's doesn't have it either nor does Costco - crazy how hard these are to find

On a related topic- how easy is it to find a tire for the XLE stock wheels? Curious if doing a mod to carry a mini-spare is worth it for long road trips, in case I need to replace a tire. If the correct tire is a hard-to-find special order in some small town I might as well not bother and just carry a full size spare.

Costco says temporarily out of stock. It seems like the tires for a 20" wheel are more in demand. When I checked Costco every single one for your size was out of stock. Alot of availability for the 18" wheel size tho.

The 18s seem a lot easier to find than the 20s so I wouldn’t worry - it’s mostly the primacy that’s Out of stock

I need a tire for my corolla hybrid and (2021) and the Ensave Dunlops are also in back order.....

I plan to replace the Bridgestone Turanza’s on my Gen 4 with Michelin Defender T+H’s. Had those on my previous Gen 3 with very good results.

I like the Defenders as well. We have them on our Odyssey (yes, we're a 2 minivan family) and have been very happy with them. Anyone know why the Defenders don't show up as compatible with the 2022 AWD on Costco's website? If you search by size, they're there, but if you search by vehicle, they don't show up. Speed rating matches OEM (H), so I don't know why that would be.

Edit: It looks like Costco.com thinks that V is the minimum rating and I just checked and sure enough, the OEMs are V, not H, but that seems a bit excessive.

Probably because they are not “run flat” tires. All the AWD Siennas (at least through 2020) all came with run flat tires as standard equipment and no provision for a spare.

I opted for 245/50/20 instead and drives just like stock. Also cheaper
