I went to Kipling tire in Toronto because I heard they have a good reputation on installing expensive rims and i was surprised to also get the best price anywhere on my PS2's

I imported my rims from the US, but was told I couldn't import the tires.

That's a great price, but I think the PS2 in 275/30/19 is alot more expensive than 18 inch pirelli snows even in the US.

For both sizes, I can get them for about $20.00 cheaper, and if you want to pay cash up front could possibly get even a better deal(which I may have to re-confirm).

this is the best i could come up with:

but when you factor in taxes and shipping... Bercasio is the better choice?
