    Look at through tires23's posts under the Sponsors section.

    http://www.torontomazda3.ca/forum/sh...ad.php?t=20688

    You can get Hankook W300's with 16" steelies, balancing and installation for $720 cash/debit. (Mine are being installed this Saturday)

    This is the set I got since I strongly believe the Michelin X-Ice are overkill for Toronto.

    Tires23 have a few winter tire packages available now.

    I've been looking at snow/winter tires for a while now and a friend of mine showed me this last weekend and we're picking our orders up this weekend in Niagara.

    16" Momo winter rims $99/ea

    http://www.discounttiredirect.com/di...4.3&vid=009746

    W300 $88/ea

    http://www.discounttiredirect.com/di...d=009746&ar=55

    Great deals in themselves BUT if you order before October 20 you get $100 off a set of 4 rims and or tires so it's $200 off and shipping is free to any of the 48 States.

    Total came out to $633 USD (much better then TireRack), just have to pay taxes and maybe duties when we return.

    After taxes it will prob bring you to par with what is being offered here. Anyways let me know how much taxes you end up paying.

    Well I just got back from picking up my tires and some shopping. Total for the tires were $716.02 after taxes, the guy didn't charge me any duty .

    So I saved about $50 when compared to packages with steelies and about $360 if I bought alloys here.
