Smile Experienced Tire Shops around the GTA ?

Hey guys, just curious if anyone knows any good tire shops around the GTA with good pricing and a good reputation. I know and have herd Tire23 is great and they know their stuff. Just wondering what other shops are on the same level since im gonna start browsing and wanna compare prices on a set of tires for aftermarket wheels on my F.

Thanks all !

Simplytire was great ? I contacted both, even contacted premier tire.. Tire23 was the priciest, then simply then premier.. How was your experience with simply ? im leaning to them even though premier is 50 bucks cheaper

I've been to both at least once.

I've getting tires from the Rim and Tire shop at Midland and Lawrence. It's not a fancy place, but it is small and family run and have the best prices from my last few sets of tires. They post on kijiji a lot.

My personal experience was great. I bought brand new tires for my Sequoia from them and their price was the cheapest at that time (Didn't check with Premier tire though). There was a slight shake in the steering wheel at highway speeds. I was busy so went after 3 weeks or so and they still took the vehicle in and checked the balancing for free! Turns out the Sequoia had one or 2 slightly bent wheels so they did the best they could to alleviate it. In summary, the support was really good along with the price. Usually you have to pick one at the expense of the other.

Talk to Chris at Simply tire and tell him you know Ali, who's a member of BMW True North, sent you for better prices. Tell him Premier are slightly cheaper but your friend told you to talk to him.

Good luck and let us know how it goes whichever company you choose.
