Hate to ask but did you check the Michelin and Spartan websites for their dealer/distributor lists? Also Spartan has a phone/pad app for service locations that is pretty useful since it quickly identifies locations that will work/not work on different types of equipment.

If you are a FMCA member you may want to contact them. They have a discount program.

Won't beat FMCA price for Michelin tires. Spartan is on FMCA program but you need to ask when contacting Spartan.

The FMCA program really is great. We joined this year for the first time solely for the tire savings. Saved $200 on the wife's car this summer, expect to save $600-$800 next year on coach tires.
Go to the FMCA website and read the details. Some Michelin dealers don't participate and act like they know nothing about it, while others do. We live in a town of 20,000 and we have one dealer who is a participant, so you should have several. The price is predetermined and not subject to negotiation. You pay Michelin, and then a separate payment for mounting taxes etc. to the dealer.
It"s not as difficult as the website makes it seem....but there is some strange procedures and approvals prior to your purchase. But saving that amount of money is well worth it.
