I'm trying to find somewhere that will ship to me? I'm a soldier stationed in Germany, most most of the mail orders I've tried don't ship to Germany or UPS only. Must be shipped USPS, since it's a PO box.

I went through Jake Wilson first, and I believe they are a sister company.

I always order my tires through http://www.jakewilson.com/ although i'm not in Germany so I can't tell you if they'll ship there but it might be worth a try to ask.

When I was stationed over-sea's(UK) I ran into problem trying to get over sized parts shipped thru APO. I ended up biting the bullet and buying off of the English market. Things may have changed since then, hope so.

When I was overseas, I would ship to my Dad, and have him forward to me. Its a pain and cost $$, but you gotta do what ya gotta do.
Good luck and thanks for your service.

Well, Metzler is a German company. You'd think it'd be easier for you to get "tyres" than us. Stop over and see if you can pick one off the assembly line. Website has a dealer locator but my high school German escapes me for any translation.

When I was stationed in Italy I got a lot of stuff from J&P, they shipped to FPO's no problem. Even tires.
