Did you buy TPMS from Tirerack? How were the taxes/exchange rates/duties/shipping? I looked at Tirerack for basic TL rims with Blizzacks and TPMS, and the price was higher for me than it was here at Ottawatiredirect for $2200 (all in) and delivered into my garage. Dealership prices were outrageous as you mentioned. I figure with the savings, I can get a new set every few years if needed, and I'm sure I'll need new rims considering they are aluminum and not the steel ones that you have!

2009 pb evo x mr

Just picked up my 2009 Phantom Black Base MR for $51,800 OTD with 0% financing for 48 months. In Ontario so 13% tax.

Used car cost canada for pricing. I was referred to a dealer, who was offering $450 over invoice. I thought that was a excellent price and I didn't have to haggle. Needless to say I am very happy with my purchase.

I LOVE MY EVO!!!!

I got a quote from one place here for $3850.00 (can't even recall the tire/rim set as I just about fell over in shock). I decided that any rim in this kind of salted road here in Ottawa was going to look like crap very soon anyways.

I bought last year some Michelin Alpin Primacy PA3... Excellent tire under heavy snow and ice... I love them...
