Not really selling anything so this may get moved but i just lucked out big time!

Picked up my 19" alufelgen CS7 last week in sport gunmetal, 19 x 8.5 front and 19 x 9.5 rear.

So i needed 235/35/19 and 265/30/19 rear. I was looking at the hankook v12 evo's because of all the positive feedback. Some shop here, automotive import market to be exact quoted me 1350 installed for the tires. WOW! what a rip off, so then i was going to get them from discount tire all in for 940 us $ which is the best price you can find, and they have free shipping and that also includes the brokerage which is a huge break for us Canadians.

I had the tab open on the site and was ready to order. out of curiosity i double checked kijiji as i do frequently and this is what i saw.

350! and they were more than 75% wear, they were basically new, only 2500 km's.

I couldn't be happier right now.

I got the rims from Wheels Addicts. A vendor on the site. Jorge was the biggest champ!

1099 shipping included and he sent the wheels with a dummy invoice so the declared value was very low just incase customs and brokerage tried to screw me.

Canadian vendors wanted 1199+ tax for the same wheels. Its crazy how they get any business

OH thats a good price too. but is that plus tax? or including, if its plus tax then discount tire is your better choice

[SuperBmw]

How much does mount and balance normally run?

And is that price shipped into Canada... or to the border and you pick them up?

[pelichrons]

that is shipped to your door. mounting and balancing is about 100 bucks. a good deal is 20 bucks a wheels

check them out, discount tire is a huge company and they are way cheaper for canadians than tire rack

Curious, were the wheels 1099 shipped into Canada as well?? That is what I really meant to ask haha.

1099 shipped fed ex ground to my door. Miami to Toronto

and i paid 350 for my tires. 1450 for my new set-up!!!

but i highly recommend Wheel Addicts. Jorge called me, followed up and made sure everything went well. Very happy with the service and product.

how much did you pay in broker fees and taxes? they gave me the best price shipped to montreal.

only problem with a low declared value that yer screwed if the rims arrive damaged.

Wait have you seen these in person to confirm? You are assuming 75% means 75%!! Tires for about 30% of their new value can't possibly be that new! And besides 75% in used tire kijiji talk is more like 40-50% of completely bald!

i have the tires. i wouldnt say its a deal if i hadn't boughten them.

They are way more than 75% and i know because i have seen brand new ones. there's tons of tread left. the guy said only 2500km-3000, and they were on an a8, even wear on all tires.

i'll probably put them on next weekend, its still too cold

Hard to understand your grammar dude. Anyways, I hope they don't have a puncture or blisters for that price. You'll only tell when they are mounted and rolling with them on your car. Never cheep out on your tires. GL.
