michelin tires

Costco has a 70$ off rebate in the US right now if you purchase all 4 Michelin tires. For me (Living in Vancouver) having 4 new tires for 446$ with taxes and install is a phenomenal deal.

Also I am contemplating using my girlfriend's Alberta ID in Washington state and picking up the tires no tax (102/tire) and installing them at some tire place down the road in Bellingham.

Just letting you all know about this deal in case you were looking for tires

Re: michelin tires

Oh yes forgot to mention that! They are the pilot exalto a/s. But the 70$ rebate still stands. The same tires here in Vancouver run for 650 cheapest I could find.

Re: michelin tires

thats a good installed price. but it'll probably be better if a MOD moved this to the regional area?

Re: michelin tires

I just picked up a set of Michelin X-Radial for $262 installed for all 4 at Costco. Would have liked a better series tire but that is the only thing they carry in a 13" wheel.
They are so much quieter than the Bridgestone Potenza'a that I had.
I would think you would still have to pay tax in WA. I know they waive tax for us Oregon residents. Do they do the same for CAN residents?

Great price I was just looking at that today. There was a lengthy court battle and WA only waives taxes for Albertans and the territories because they do not have a PST but you must have ID that. Up until June 2010 all of Canada was waived in paying taxes in WA.


And yeah, I guess this thread should be moved somewhere..thought 'general automotive' would've been a decent place for it though.

Re: michelin tires

It's the X-Radial. I had Costco installed back in Feb, 2007. I'm still using it. There's only few choices to choose.
