Good tire and mag dealer in Montreal

macoutu · 09-26-2013, 09:38 PM

Hi,

I'm looking for a winter setup and would like to know if anyone has a recommendation for a good dealer in Montreal. I used to go to Touchette but for some reason they've dropped the ball on getting back to me 2-3 times and now i'm pissed at them.

Probably gonna go with Nokian Hakkas and some black mags

I'm kinda in the same boat as I need new winters. But I don't think there's such a thing a a "good" tire dealer. Why would you pay more to buy locally when you can get the same tire cheaper online (1010tires, tiretrends, tirerack etc.), specially when local dealers don't even provide road hazard warranties so basically they just sell you tires, mount them and that's about it. I'd advise to shop around but buy from the cheapest source.

Thanks!

We have very very good price on Nokians winter tires (including road hazard and $70 off mail-in-rebate)

We also carry a wide range of winter wheels (replicas and others)

I hear you, if i was just shopping for tires i'd find the cheapest deal and be done with it. I think that's not so easy with Nokian as they don't seem to deal a lot with online shops.

Plus, i'm looking to get new mags with these tires and am worried about fitment. The 1 series has retarded stock offsets (+46mm i was told). At least with a local shop, i know i can go back if something doesn't work out.
