You’re not the only one mate.
They are available on Alibaba but big orders only and two month lead time (according to the rep)

Dunno bro.
The MOQ says 200.
I asked for a small ‘sample’ 
order of 12
Reply was “ Now the production is very busy. Factory only arrange bulk order production. and the lead time is more than 2 months now.”

$5-$15/piece
Assume if you order bulk you get lower rate
I’m pretty interested in making this happen.
never dealt much with alibaba. my hesistance/lack of knowledge there is the only thing holding me back.

I have messaged the vendor earlier to get indicative pricing to see what might be possible!

200 is only 50 sets. Why not just let Ilan deal with that though, and buy from him? Serious question. $15x4 is not much less than his price.
if you guys want to do a group buy. I will buy 4 sets

Another group buy!?!? Id be down if we got some 200mm as well. Maybe 2 sets of each

I chew through the tires doing intro 2 speed. ( short course race practice in a parking lot) i need a more consumable price. that $40 difference is is another 2/3rs of a set at $15x4
but I was eying that $5.00x4 price… probably too a bit too optimistically.
but you’re not wrong. there has to be some overhead for bad tires to get replaced. that does narrow the gap.

I mean, I don’t know much, but I see something that says “MOQ 200” and something that says “$5 - $15” and something else that says “155x55” and “200x50”
…then I automatically assume they’re $15 per single tire unless you order 10,000 of them, and I also assume the $5 price is if you order 10k of the tires you don’t want (200x50)
and who does QC? If you get a bad one from Ilan, he’d have to replace it, but I feel like if you got bad ones from them, you’re SOL.
I mean, until I heard otherwise anyway, I’d assume that… but IDK really 
Maybe you should just split an MOQ with Ilan 
His price is out of stock
And international shipping option he offered is crazy expensive. $70 for 4 tires ($99 order) was best he could offer. Or $120 for 2 sets… DHL express only.

Ive asked them about prices on 200-600 tyres to get a guage for what they can offer us. Hopefully I can negotiate the price down a little.
Once I get to some concrete numbers, Ill post them up and see what the best option is. Only slight hiccup being that im EU.
