Anyone know some good deals on tires/rims in canada?

More precisely looking to put 2k down on 17" tires/rims(black) for a 2011 bmw 328i xdrive. I bought enkei's a few years ago on 1010tires.com and thought it was a good price and didn't get ripped, heard some not so great reviews on their tires though.

Not interested in tirerack.com

Also any rim/tire brand to stay away from?

They are nice, I will see if I could get some around my area, your price on ebay is 2515$ canadian without taxes though for me

They are also 19s and much wider than what I am looking for right now :lol: and curb rashed

tirerack.com had some real deal 3-4 years ago

I bought michelin x ice for not even 700$ shipping and custom taxes included while it would have cost me between 800 and 950 to buy it here

you should look at it for sure

e: dop, didn't read your first post completly..but you should still look at it o.o

Let me help you kill the scene in these recent times.

First wheel choice has very little to do with fitment and how they look on your car. It's all about bragging rights and price tag my friend. I mean it doesn't matter at all if the wheel looks good if you spent thousands on them. I'll let you know ways to make them work in a few if the fitment is extremely off.

Now for some info on choosing the right wheel. . Reps always shatter and kill the buyer every time, proven fact. You could go with something oem or oem+ if you like cockmeat sandwiches, some look ok but still in the car world you love the cock. A name brand aftermarket one piece forge wheel can maybe get you a little tail (10 beer tail) but they must be an extremely overplayed wheel. Now for the real wheels... multiple piece wheels!! With these you become superior to your fellow man and can now talk down to those pesky motor mods because you have that stance bruh... 2 piece wheels are easy to use, basically you can now talk twice as much shit to your friends. Then you have the realist of the real, the 3 piece wheels forged by God himself! Getting one of these sets and you are practically a god now, you can ignore everyone whilst being worshipped and having pics raining all over those forum nerds. But remember reps make those multiple piece wheels so take care in being budget minded and make sure to spend at least 3 grand to be on the safe side.


OK so you got your god based wheels and you test fit, but they don't quite work? No Problem!! There are a few ways around this. First if they don't sit hella flush and tuck under you can get massive spacers to fix this issue, perfectly safe for parking. But what if they poke too much?? You actually have a few options here! You could camber the fuck out of them to like 30+° and stretch those tires, this helps improve your chances of killing the scene. But what if you camber them till the wheels are riding the inside of the rim on the pavement and they still don't fit? You're in the golden area because you can get some datsun fender flares and BOOM! instant wide body racekar. Killin it bruh!! Hope this helps :)




But really some borbets, bbs, or kerschers would look good.
