Discount Tire currently has a $50 rebate going for a set of BFGoodrich tires... I just bought some Michelins there during the $60 Michelin rebate and, on top of that, they matched the Costco price on the tires.

I haven't tried to buy them, but they still make them as far as I know - you may have to check with the retailer for a particular size:
BFGoodrich Radial T/A

Depending on what size you're after, it sure looks like they're available:

I've never used Tire Rack, but they've also got a $50 rebate offer going...

Well, Tire Rack in my previous link is the only one I see with them, although they're listed as backordered. Also, be sure to take the shipping cost into account - it'll add about $100. I'd guess you're looking at about $700 after shipping and rebate...

If Tire Rack doesn't work for you, looks like Sears might have them at a decent price:

Best I can say then is use the dealer locator at BFGoodrich (dealer locator) to search within 50 miles of you and start calling!
