If you use winter tires, make sure you mention this to your insurance company, as it can help lower your premiums a bit. It depends on the company though. Belair offers a discount for having winter tires on your car during the appropriate months.

ughhh yeah I just called Bel-air this afternoon and apparently it's "Bodily Injury" and "Accident Benefits" that went up specifically, which caused most people's insurance to increase this year. She said she saw similar cases to what Angela had just mentioned. I suppose my increase isn't too bad, but still annoying. Could have made that windshield claim after all... :bangQuote:

I just had a long talk with my agent and they told me some good information, it's true and basically when you hear people getting low low rates, it's either 1. A group insurance, not a mutual insurance like most companies (state farm) or 2. The area.
Basically he ran quotes for me and weather I drove a Porsche or high end BMW or my mazda/subaru the prices stay pretty much the same, with maybe 10-15$ more a month for the porsche. So what drives it up, is mainly the experiences of the driver, the liability basically. That which factors in the area you live in. If I just moved to oakville or waterloo/london, whatever further from GTA, my rates would go down probably $40-$50 a month meaning I would be paying $120ish. So don't believe everyone with their low rates, it's probably the area and group insurance rates.
I'm 29 and have excellent record and with mutiple car/line discounts I still am paying $170ish

my insurance went up over 2,000 dollars this year (as of February 18). Looked around and will be switching to Allstate, which quoted me a price cheaper then before the 2000 dollar increase.
never had a speeding ticket or at fault accident. **** the personal.
