Through my mechanic. I paid $1,700 for the rims, new bolts, tires (I think he priced the rubber at $266 a tire + $5.85 tire tax they introduced in Ontario this year) and mounting/installation. I don't think this is a deal by any stretch of the imagination as I would have paid much less out the door for the Blizzak's AND the Conti kit but since we do a lot of driving on dry pavement here in Toronto I don't want to replace Blizzak's every 2-3 years, thus making a short terms savings into a longer term cost.
BTW Active Green + Ross was selling the rubber for $230 a piece but somehow with steelie rims it ended up being $1,700 anyway.
Anyone monitoring
www.redflagdeals.com ? Apparently they had a great special on Michelin winter tires very recently. I had a friend who always bought their tires through either Costco or Sams Club and always saved money.
