Thread: Whats a good alternative for buying tires?

Any good local tire dealers?
Hoping to find good deal for my Mazda 5 2006.
I usually got my tires at CT, but these guys killing me !
For some reasons prices for this specific model are insane....

I'm in Toronto by the way.
Thank you in advance!

Lately I've been going to Kal Tire and having good luck.

When I want recommendations, I've been sending emails or facebook messages to all my friends and co-worker. People really do want to help one another! (Unless you are a greedy CT Owner, LOL!)

Lots of recommendations for alternatives to Crappy Tire, here too: https://www.facebook.com/Canadiantire

Pretty hilarious!

Kal Tire comes up there, too. Or Costco or even Walmart. I like to support small local shops, though.

Thank you for the reply!!
I tried KalTire, but the prices are far from great.... not sure why...
Costco and Wallmart are in the same category as CT...
I actaully anded up getting my tires from here. www.getmetires.com
It says they get prices from bunch of local ( Toronto ) tire dealers... The price was pretty good and I didn't have to call 10 dealers sign me up.
I'm going to install the tires this week, so I'll post how it went. I just had to pay a 5% deposit on the website, before they told me who the dealer is.
If its not a scam, sounds like a good idea

Thanks for taking the time to write about your findings. Looking forward to the follow-up.

ok. So everything worked out great!
I got a great deal and instalation went without a hitch... So it looks like www.getmetires.com delivers
Saved me a lot of time on the phone
