Cheapest way to get tires for canada?

ray_futbol · 07-15-2011, 01:28 AM

Is it cheaper to order from the states and pay duties/ shipping or to purchase it from a canadian dealer?

Thank you!

Discounttiresdirect.com is cheaper.

It really depends on the current duties and taxes. I would check both in state and in Canada. 1010Tires is located in Canada, so you may want to check out their prices.

You can check our pricing (including shipping, taxes, duties, etc) here :

Just enter your postal code after you've selected your tire for a shipping quote.

Discount tires has a flat rate of $40 per tire for shipping taxes and duties to Canada and are usually cheaper , however Tirerack while a little more expensive has more selection and sizes
in Canada 1010 tires is always more expensive and Tiretrends are often close

Have you tried or thought of Costco tire department? I personally haven't but I've heard mixed reviews about this prices and customer service.

I know the customer service is mediocre, but prices are decent.

Last time i went they only had bridgestone and michelins. They even have the Bridgesteon RE050A pontenza RFT too!

But Edmonton's Costcos probably aren't as good as Toronoto's lol
