Default Good Tire Site

I just received the tires I ordered from treadepot.com
They were a fantastic deal, so I thought I would put this out there to check that site if you are looking for rubber. They came in by almost $150 less than buying local...and that was with shipping. Take care

Check out Discout Tire Direct as well (who is also a site supporting vendor), I had a good experience with them getting my Dunlop Rover MTs.

It's so much more expensive to buy the equivalent tires in Canada. It's basically bullshit.

Ah, but getting a friend in the states to buy 'em, and then not need them, and then give them to you on a visit and you getting 'em back into Canuck-ada GST free is all part of the game! At least all the BC plated cars and trucks I saw in Bellingham's tires stores would lead me to believe this. Gas and every product returning sans packaging because--you know, you brought it down that way. Hehehe.

In exchange, you give your ugly girls a $5 McDonalds gift card and a one-way bus ticket to the states, keeping all the hotties for yourself. Oh, and that's not enough? You keep all the Cuban rum and cigars to yourselves too! That's right, I know how it goes! Don't come crying to me about the tires, mister!

:^D

speaking of winter tires, I just grabbed some $1000 255/55/18 cooper discoverer m/s tires for $650 from a guy who bought them before he found out that he was moving to dubya land....don't think he will be needing them there.

Bargain! I'm sure he'll have little need for them in Texas, that's for sure.

Yeah he would have a hell of a time trying to sell them in texas, plus I'm sure he didn't want to have to move an extra few hundred pounds of rubber in addition to everything else.
