429dhm Posted October 5, 2005 I am tired of paying so much money for tires, Canadian tire prices are almost double of what is available from Mail order companies in the US. And US mail order comanies do not ship to Canada. Is there any Canadian mail order companies? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RMXC51 Posted October 5, 2005 What company did you call that doesn't ship to Canada? Never seen that before. Most DO ship here, but by the time you pay shipping, taxes and duty, your very close to Canadian prices on most items. Try to find a good deal from a major Alberta dealer and have them ship you the tires. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
429dhm Posted October 5, 2005 Motosport Outlet, does not ship to Canada. $100/pair US is way cheaper than $80/tire! US! That number is from the Part Canada on line catalog, Maxis IT Rear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RMXC51 Posted October 5, 2005 Once you factor exchange, shipping, duty, and tax its pretty close. One place I would steer VERY clear of is throttlehead.com. Crappiest customer service anywhere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mole1 Posted October 6, 2005 if your dealer is charging you full list from the parts canada catalog he is reaming you period . unfortunately most mail order business in canada is located in ontario which means you pay shipping . try these and maybe order 3 or 4 tires at a time . http://www.machineracing.com/main/main.php http://www.powersports.ca/ http://www.royaldistributing.com/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
429dhm Posted October 6, 2005 I get discounts at the local dealer, I am just looking at the best deal. I guess it is the price we pay for living in Canada. Funny though Dunlops are made in Japan and we still pay more than our neighbors down south. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
