Ouch! I got mine for $116 USD and had them shipped to just across the line. Total converted to Canadian and all taxes in was $686 for the 4 of them.

Did you get them from Discount Tire Direct? Cause I just went on their site and that's what the selling price is for your size, for my size they are $169/tire. And with the current exchange rate, which is much better than when I was buying my tires it comes out to like $210/tire. Then you have to consider that I bought them through a Canadian store and he would have had to pay shipping and other crap to get them to Canada, etc. so, could I have paid less, yes. At that point in time I didn't know much about this whole parts game that we have to play in Canada. Have I learned, yes, just last week I drove down to Noonan to get my exhaust parts and some for my uncle as well. Instead of paying over $600/piece from the Mustang Shop I paid $319 US and $375 US and my uncle's stuff was $329 US each. So that worked out to save me us about $400 each! When it comes time to replace my current tires I'll be doing something different to get them into Canada! So no worries!

Canadian shops are usually way way way overpriced....but i found a good shop Im sure most of you have heard of it...its performance plus in saskatoon. They are the only canadian shop that I found their prices arent double what they should be....if anyone needs anythign I would check their prices first...also right NOW they are selling rims for dirt cheap I mean dirt cheap.....

Also SyberSport Racing (http://www.sybersport.com/) in Winnipeg is awesome. On Maximum Motorsports stuff they always have good prices. Plus they carry a lot of great brands and for those of us in provinces that are "graced" with PST since it's an out of province thing you don't have to pay PST on anything from there!

I think he meant $600 for the Magnaflow Magnapack exhaust, not for the tires.

I got my Nitto 555r's from The Mustang Shop for the price you had on the link. I think I got a good deal. I really like the guys there. They know a hell of a lot about Stangs and I really trust their opinions, especially Matt.
