Tires from the US
 

Hey guys, I needed 2 315/35/17 tires for my rear and I had a hard time finding anything reasonably priced here in Canada (as usual).

I ended up making contact with the Tire Rack in Indiana. They ship to Canada and when they quote you it is all inclusive (incl. tax, duty, shipping).

I got a pretty good deal on the tires.

I emailed them, they gave me a quote and they called me to get my c/c info to save me the long distance bill when I was ready to order. Not bad service!

If anyone else is in the same need for tires here is the guys email address.

Good to hear!


So when they get to your door, fedex/UPs wont charge you extra?
Thats a plus:)

Yes, all the fees were upfront so when it shows up all I do is sign for it.
After I paid he sent me a confirmation by email and all the fees (duty, etc) were listed on the invoice.

Got the tires this morning. Would have received them probably Wednesday but a storm on Monday screwed that.

Can't wait until spring...............

AWW, you bought sumitomos....
They are not a bad tire for the price.

I think i have the ones a step of from them. HTRZ II. not bad traction, wet or dry.

I think ill buy from them next time i need tires. :)

Yeah, for $98.00 each you're bloody right I bought Sumi's...lol. For the price I couldn't turn it down.

I had a set of them before and never had any problems with them whatsoever so I didn't mind.
I know they are not Goodyear Eagle F-1's ($439.00 us each) but my car is a garage queen and only comes out on nice sunny days so they are perfect for me.

Have a good one!

I have Sumi's too and I love them........Had Goodyears and the Sumi's are just as good and they are a better bang for the buck....Wise choice

Agreed.
Have them aswell.

I got them too, & they're a great tire for that kinda money. Got them at Carlisle. Well worth it!

Speaking of Carlisle I will start a new thread.
