Default Sources for retread tires??

We're looking for sources to buy a set of retread 700 x 6 8 ply tires from.
The guy we bought our Aztec from only had 6 ply tires on the main gear. 6
plys aren't rated high enough for our gross weight and the POH clearly calls
for 8 plys.

There seems to be a shortage of 8 ply cases in this particular size. Desser
and Wilkerson are both out. If anybody has any good sources for retreads,
I'd appreciate hearing from the group. OR if anybody has any name brand
used tires I'd be interested in buying them to have them retreaded. Aztecs
seem to be one of the only airplanes running this particular size/ply
combination.

Also, if anybody with a Bonanza, Maule, Rockwell Commander, Citabria, or
Apache needs some 700 x 6 6 plys, I've got 3 that have about 75% tread on
them.

Jim
