Shipping wheels to canada from the states
Hey guys,
well i'm on the hunt for M6 reps and i'm looking at probably ordering from teh states. I'm' asking if anyone has any experience here with this and what kind of fees they've had to pay? What i've figured so far: 1700 for wheels/tires shipped + 6% GST + 6% Duty-or are the wheels made in teh US/Mexico? (from Jlevis) + $55 Brokerage + 6% Exchange rate Grand total 2 large. best canadian price so far ....2600. |

thanks for the info so looks like i'll be paying duty on them. even still should save around 5-600 bucks.
now just debating if i should wait until next summer as in calgary we'll most likely be getting snow in a month or so! |

Getting summer wheels in the winter time usually means you can capitalize on some good closeout deals. Only problem is that TireRack is so huge they always have stock and warehouse space and don't run deep sales in the winter time.
I say get 'em now. If you're lucky...you might be able squeeze about 10-12 weeks use out of them before you need to switch to your winter setup... |

Make sure it is shipped and noted as 1 shipment of 4 rims otherwise you will be charged brokerage fees separately on each.
As far as taxes, I believe it's based on the "declared amount" on the shipment form. I lowered mine to help my buyer out.
