Where do you get your tires?

mishuko · 01-20-2015, 08:00 AM

So... another question for my Canadian friends...

Where do you guys order tires?

I'm trying to find a local distributor of bridgestone if possible but also considering ordering from Tirerack.

Anyone have any exceptional experiences with any garage/company worth noting? I'm in Toronto but can travel within reason.

thanks in advance guys

I just had a quote from tire23 which was cheaper than US. I've never dealt with them personally but at least give them a call.

I've have a buddy that owns a shop, or if I can I go to Spokane.

Get it from Simply Tires. Its located in GTA and they give good price for their products.

+1 for Simply Tires good prices and they use Hunter Road Force balancing. The guy there knew what my car was just by the tire size I was asking for and recommended I go up to the 305s for the rears. I have not regretted going with the larger tires.

Surprisingly I get the best price for tires at my local nissan dealer. The parts guy always seems to be able to get good prices.

Tires23 is pretty good. I get a lot of car parts from them as well.

alcheng · 02-14-2015, 04:28 PM

Tires23..

I tried Simply Tires too, not good experience.

tires23 has very good price and service.

if you go to tire23, ask for Benny, tell him I (Alex) refer you, he knows me very well.

actually you called them at the right time...

if you try to call/email them 2 months ago when everyone was ordering snow tires.. your email will probably get sunk into their inbox along with the other 200+ emails they receive daily....

btw, what are you getting?????

mishuko · 02-20-2015, 12:30 PM

Lol emailed for quote end of January. Going with re 11, 245/35/19 f and 285/30/19 r

Something like that haha. Now debating when... I almost want to go mid March but the weather is being finicky
