I can't say enough good things about using tire rack. Weather you get them installed at a certified dealer in the states or have them shipped here to Canada, it is an excellent service.

Having the selection of wheels CAD or physically tested on the vehicle sold me. I ended up getting snow tires mounted and balanced on Enkei wheels and shipped to Canada. The emergency jack was more than sufficient to change the tires and I got a torque wrench from princess auto. The thought of the dealer marking the rims with air tools is something I'm not taking a chance on.

FYI. The dealer said they aren't responsible for scarred rims when replacing the tires on our BBS rims. Apparently they are hard to work with.... I'd look around for a competent shop.

No kidding. At least they told me upfront they aren't good with tires. If anyone has recommendations for a shop in the Toronto area, I'm all ears.

I looked at the difference in the price and the biggest factor was the shipping. One of the many draw backs of living in Edmonton (only take my car out 5 mths of the year, potholes that could swallow a small sedan, horrible hockey team--for now) is the distance from the border. I considered having the tires shipped to Montana and have them installed there, even considered having them shipped to Edmonton and pay the duty but in the end I would only save a 100-150 on the tires...PLUS i would not get warranty threw the installers but have to deal with tire rack. Thanks for the heads up on installation on the installation teams..I will have to ensure they know what they are doing.

you can check the reviews on tire rack of the certified installers in Montana. It may be worth the trip.

I'm also in the west end kazaks. Are there any regular meets or track days in Toronto?

It's a black 2010. There must be some IS meets we could crash. How many ISF owners do we have from Toronto?

 

[Carbon]

Not me.

That makes 4 of us for the Toronto ISF club
We could do a pub meet? Anyone interested? Also would be interested in doing a track day.

Excellent, thank you digger. Depending on how busy work is, I'll be there.
