You might be better off working out a deal in the US and shipping back here.

Are you specifically looking for a shop in the GTA only?

Depends on the wheel & if it's in stock.
If it's stock... only takes a week to ship.

Still looking for TE37??

I've been shopping for new wheels as well and haven't found what I am looking for (hot and cheap ) May have to wait until next year.

The shipping and customs/duty/brokerage in the US sounds like it would be a big a$$ penalty for those on a budget. Have you looked at Canadian internet order from tiretrends.com or 1010tires.com?

There are a few shops near my condo in Etobicoke which I checked out. The prices at www.wheelandtirezone.com seemed decent (just slightly below mailorder). The shop has some nice cars sitting outside and nice attitude with my noob questions but, was alright after they warmed up.

With my budget, I've checked out www.maximwheels.net in Markham and they carry inexpensive wheels but, they don't have a storefront and you order by phone or email. You meet them in a parking lot to look at the wheels before you buy

BTW anyone heard good/bad things about SPYN or TSW wheels?
