where to get the ultimate tire deal in the GTA?

0asis · 02-21-2010, 04:18 PM

hey guys,

can you guys recommend a great tire shop besides 1010tire and Steelcase in the GTA? I'm looking for Falkens or Toyo summers!

another option is allen at simplytires (near sheppard & allen)
website: http://allenahi.globat.com/main.html

last year he had falken specials. search redflagdeals and torontomazda forums for last year's prices.

Attention all who use the section “Tire Reviews” from the www.1010tires.com website to select their next tires. The evaluations are not very serious.
In February 2011, I used this section of the www.1010tires.com to check the comments and the evaluation given on the tires I have on my car which are Kumho Ecsta SPT (KU31).
So on February 8th, 2011, I printed the page and kept in file the results of my selection made on the left hand side of the Web page. My selection was the following: “Tire Reviews » Passenger Cars » Summer » Ultra High Performance “. In February, the Kumho Ecsta SPT (KU31) tire had a rating of 3.8 with 90 evaluations (# of Rates).
This week, a mechanic told me that some other tires like the Pirelli P Zero Nero or the Continental Extreme Contact DW were tires which could interest me the next time I need to buy summer tires. By curiosity, I went back to the 1010tires website to look up on those tires and noticed that several ratings had very important changes since my visit of last month. For example in February, the fourth best rating was the Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 with a rating of 4.0 and 69 evaluations and in March, the same tire is now in first position with still 69 evaluations, but a rating of 4.6!
In regards the Kumho Ecsta SPT (KU31) it went down to a 3.6 rating with the same number of evaluations, 90.
What do we need to think about this? The ratings are influenced by the in-stock tires 1010tires has, the manufacturers influence the ratings by various strategies, the 1010tire team has changed its method of calculating the ratings… I do not, but I wanted to share this information I discovered by chance.

Allen @ Simply Tire is a good friend of mine. I can vouch for the quality of service and prices. Please check him out before going anywhere else...especially ordering from the US. Tell him Serf sent you and he'll take care of you. He's currently moving to a larger location a block away but he is still open.

Bajan Loch · 03-26-2011, 08:14 PM

+1 for Allen, bought winter tires/wheels from him for my other vehicle, good service and price

I can vouch for Tires 123 as have bought two sets of tires in past year. They also take real good care of the rims when they put the tires on....Thats one thing you don't want, scratched rims from some butcher shop. Beleive me, if you get tires from Crappy Tire or any other high volume chain, much better chance of damaged rim finish

pHo_e92 · 03-27-2011, 10:35 AM

Tires23 have the best prices PERIOD!

congee · 03-27-2011, 06:04 PM

try JOY CITY TIRES ( Woodbine and Steele ) if you are east GTA

Agreed, can't really comment on their summer tire prices, but I found they had the best prices when I got my winter tires there last year.

jasonintoronto · 03-27-2011, 09:56 PM

i vouch for alen at simply tire. he's been able to match any deal i can get from the US

Fozzy · 03-28-2011, 02:11 PM

+1 Tires23

Simply Tyre another decent option

picus · 03-28-2011, 02:59 PM

Just want to +1 tires23; good guys, good prices in my experience.

Z06Driver · 03-28-2011, 03:10 PM

Well looks like I will be going to Tires 23 from now on. Tried Allen and his service is nothing to write home about. It was my mistake to not have called around by assuming his was the best price....won't be making that mistake again!

roman_s · 03-28-2011, 05:00 PM

Tire District is really good as well.. talk to Adam - last time I went there were 2 M6's and a 335 getting prettied up.. tell him your from e90post
