Default Nitto and RA1 tires help

Here in canada we have an aweful problem getting NTO1's because of a border battle and selling rights and its even difficult to get RA1's here. I use and love the Nittos on my racecar and will use RA1's but refuse to use R888's which we all know to be ...well....crap.

where do you order your tires from? Tire Rack and onlinetires.com look good. I've ordered hancooks from discount tire before and they are pretty good. Are RA1's still plentiful down there? I see a lot of guys running them. Even if I order Nittos in the states the companies (distributors) are told not to ship them to anyone from Canada. To buy them here is outrageous in costs. I won't shock you guys with the prices. Some companies won't even ship Nittos to the border so I can pick them up there. Its just stupid. I use 275 40 17's, a pretty standard size.

Anyway, I'm interested in RA1 distributors and ones for NTO1's. Thanks for any help.

Replied Vega. Thanks for the tip.

Discount has been told not to ship Nittos to Canadian buyers.
