Mind you, those are a whole different animal from the regular MXV4's. Through my distributor they are listed as "DT" which means different tread. They are a totally different product number from the normal MXV4's.

I don't know. Both are 102T's. One is just $40 less than the other at cost. The one referenced above has a product number of 060000704. The other one has a product number of 060000563. Both are 102T, both are 500AA. I'll make some calls tomorrow and figure out the deal.

Here is the way it comes out on my screen, more or less. The first number is the Product Number, the one directly below is the Supplier Number.

All actual costs have been removed to protect the innocent.

If you'll notice, the one being offered on special is even listed "DT" which means different tread.

I did a little research and found that the tire on sale is the one for the Honda Plot, not the one for the for the Honda Odyssey.

I suspect there is some consolidation going on.

And just an FYI, this should point to the fact that OEM tires are individuals and aren't the same - even when they appear to be the same.
