I need to get some new rubber for my other SUV....VW Tiguan and was wondering where y'all find that the best deals are out there for new rubber?

In the Lower Mainland I found that Tireland in Richmond gave me the best prices.

Other than that, as John says, order them from Tirerack, ship to a Tire installer in Bellingham and drive over and get them installed.

I just got new tires for the FFRR down south and the savings were significant. I haven't tried tirerack, but there are many options down there. I made sure to declare them coming back and there were no issues.

You can also ship them direct. With Tirerack, you pay all customs fees up front on the initial purchase. No surprises and you know the total cost. Even with shipping, it is a lot cheaper than local.

I noticed that they will ship to an installer in West Van, so I might go that route.

Thanks for the advice guys.
