I've got some brand new tires I just got from France.  My original plan was air these all up and keep them in my temperature controlled closet in my basement all year until cross, only to be prayed to each morning but I've got to pay taxes and stuff so maybe they can go to your closet for next year.  

 

I bought them in Feb, thinking that it would allow 8 months of aging before the cx season is to start, its a good idea to do if you have money to spare and the space to keep them.  People say the aging doesn't matter, some say it does, it makes sense to me.  Air them up to 35psi, let them sit in a dark cool 50-60d f setting for 8 months and presumably you have a more suppler, more puncture resistant tire.

 

Here's what I got.

700x32 Grip XL.  $100 each

700x32 Sprint blanc(white file tread)  $105 each.

700x32 Grifo sprint black(black file tread) $100 each. 

 

 

I also have.

700x32 Tufo Flexus Primus, $90each.  305 grams!  

 

If you know you need tires for next season, I'd look into getting them now.  These fmb tires are made to order, they are 2 months old and have been properly cared for.  If you wait till the summer or fall, its hard to tell how shipping will be, how much the euro will cost, or even if anyone has them in stock.
