The trick to to find a decent place to mount them, the low profile tires are a challenge to mount
Apart from that there is More than Tires in Carlisle if you go to Corvettes of Carlisle. They are really good and have a great facility... i believe they said that 75% of their customers are from Canada...
the other thing is to order them from discount tire and have them delivered to a US location, have a trip down there and make a weekend out of it. By the time you get done with the exchange rates, you will have saved a few hundred bucks, hardly worth it for a run down there just for tires.
Just bought 2 rear tires for my 2015 Z06 , best price i could find anywhere , also got 2 new front tires for my Wifes 2010 Shelby . Delivery was quick and painless
Just installed my third set of oem Michelins PS on the Z... no discount right now is a killer. 3K plus HST. I go to Leggat only because I find it hard to find or trust others to install without damage to my rims which appear to have become rather rare. I know of a few that have experienced the damage first hand. These tires are a real bitch to install.
Hated the price and could get a slightly better deal in the US but for the difficulty locating the tires and several shops (Dunn for one) knew of the difficulty and weren't enthusiastic about mounting them. In the end, stayed Cdn for the couple hundred bucks you save (remember exchange/and import unless you install there)
A set of tires will last you 25K almost dead on if you drive your car. I am at 52K km and a valuable lesson I am learning...don't drive so much eheheh.
You are doing very well at that millage , im still on the rears at 25,000 but i have a new set ready to go on , fronts lasted me 19,000 and were down to the cords .

I have a never mounted new set of four BF Goodrich Radial TA’s 225 70 R15 for sale. $525.00 for the lot. Drop me a PM or email me at dpiccone@rogers.com if you’re interested
19,000 km,s . I have just short of 26,000 on the rears right now , i have a new set to go on the back but i think I'm gonna see how many km,s i can get out of them before they are either down to the cords or too "slick" to drive .

At 33k Kms and just coming up on the tread wear bar. Does this make me a grandpa driver?
Kidding aside, really impressed by how evenly these tires wear. Love the PSS and will replace them with another set or PS4S
I couldn't find the P4s size to fit the Z06 , however , i did put a set on my 2010 Shelby . Wayyyyy better than the Goodyears that have been on there since new ( 44,000 kms ) . The Goodyears weren't worn but they seemed to have lost their grip . Bought the P4s from the same place as the PSS
I have a new never mounted set of 225 70 R15 BF Goodrich Radial TA tires for sale...$525 for the 4 tires. Tires are located in Vaughan. Send me a pm or email me at dpiccone@rogers.com if you’d like to purchase them.
I finally got around to replacing my MPSS. Got 37K Kms out of them and they wore evenly to the end. Went to see Chris at Burning Rubber Tire & Speed in Oakville and was not disappointed. They set me up with MPS4S's at a decent price. They are a very knowledgeable bunch of car guys and for a little shop have the equipment to handle top end cars, including a Hunter Force Balancer.
Glad to hear they took care of you. Everyone I’ve sent there has been happy/well taken care of. I was just a customer but became friends. Then he hired another guy I know, who is skilled and very particular. Yes, he has premium Hunter equipment. Quality alignment rack too. They set weights on the drivers seat for their alignments as well. Chris and Alex both race road course tracks as well. They also do track alignments for a lot of guys. The shop is getting a great name with car guys. I see McClarens, Vettes, Lamborghinis, Ferraris, Porsches, BMW M’s, Mercedes sport stuff, Alphas, Lotus etc in there all the time. The Alfa dealer even uses them to mount all the big low profile stuff. They have good equipment and know how to use it. If you watch the monitors in the waiting area you see pics of some of his customers cars. No matter what the customers drive there, they are not stuck up either. They seem to be true car lovers. Good chats can be had waiting lol.
