It sucks not getting deals like you US Jeepers....we get raked over the coals for aftermarket accessories.

So for example MTZ tires:
For your $240/tire
add on
$50 for the dollar difference - Total Cdn - $290/tire then add
another $20/tire shipping/tire
another $25 for brokerage fees/tire
add $12.00 for GST/tire
add $20.00 for PST in BC/tire


your tire total in Canadian Dollars: $370.00/tire, but if you shop around you can maybe get it cheaper.

So for a set of 5 tires you are looking at $1850.00 for 5 tires then you add on balancing and mounting costs and eco fees and it should ring up near $1950 to $2000 for the 5 tires in Canadian Funds.

If you want to add rims....you are looking at another $850 to $2000 depending on brand and size. $2600 is pretty good for 5 wheels/rims and tires here in Canada.

I am waiting to see as well if our Dollar rebounds....if not I may just drive across the border and get the parts installed in the US and drive back across to avoid the GST/PST and brokerage/shipping costs and make it a holiday for the family.
