buy from the USA. all my big ticket purchases will continue to come from the USA until canadian prices come down. this is a matter of me saving $$ in my pocket.

For anyone living in the GTA, We can get the same deals as the yanks
You can get your parts shipped to niagra falls, ny and then pick them up.
My brother has done it and saved a ton, as shipping is ususally free within the states.
Were going this weekend to get a roll bar (and installing it there lol) then driving back.

Buy them "used" from a member here. I sold my slightly used 19x9.5/19.10.5 GTS w/ almost new Toyo tires. My wheels were immaculate and clean enough to eat off of. Sold them to a guy in Canada for $2800. After all the shipping and brokage fees you guys had to pay the buyer spend about $3200.
