Are Continental TKC80s available in Chile?

I´m travelling up the Carretera Austral and was wondering if anyone knows whether you can get Continental TKC80s for a KLR650 in Chile. I know you can´t get them in Argentina so I may have to stick with the Metzeler Tourances, which by the way, have been amazing. I´ve been going everywhere the guys with TKC80s and Metzeler Karoos have been just fine, but I was hoping for something a bit knobblier before I reach Bolivia.
Anyone know?
Thanks,
Michelle

I didnt find any TKC80's in Chile & spent a long time looking.

Karoo's will be fine for Bolivia, or there's always MT21's if you need knobblier . You can find MT21' s in Bolivia but not much else.
