Hey all, I know that someone posted about the differences about tire prices between the USA and Canada. Since I was already researching tires to buy I figured I would check out the price differences. So I got pricing on two different tires and compared the price to the price offered on tirerack.com. See the price differences below.
Pirelli P7 Cinturato 225-45-17 XL
List Price CDN: $198.90
Quoted price: $188.96
Tirerack price: $128.00
about 36% less in the USA
Pirelli PZero Nero A/S 225-45-17 XL
List Price CDN: $211.25
Quoted Price: $206.00
Tirerack price:$123.00
about 42% less in the USA
Just wanted to post this as I know their was a discussion about pricing differences in the USA. Obviously some of the difference accounts for volume pricing differences but it goes to show that Id rather get my tires across the border than locally.
