That's a pretty good price considering it's in Alberta. Local shops wanted to charge me $1500 - $1600 for a set of 5 Pro Comp 8069's. You should check out Discount Tire Direct also... I got a set of 5 Level 8 Tracker rims for $900 shipped (all brokerage, duties, shipping/handling included in the $900). They have free shipping to Canada and they are great to deal with. I like the MT Classic II rims the best, but that's just cause I've always like the more traditional 8 hole look on a Jeep. Here's mine...

Considering they price match, no tax, and free shipping. I'm gonna say you need to give Discount Tire a holler!!

Talk to Stan at Northridge 4x4 in Ponoka, AB. He also offers free shipping to anywhere in Canada on orders over $100 I believe. He's got good prices too.

Personally, I think the Pro COmps look a little better than the MT's.

imo, I like the Pro comp 7036's, the 8 holes are too popular.
