k they dont really deal with rims and rubber but, do not ever, ever deal with Dow Honda lol. Have to get the word out. I know we bought our winter tires at canadian tire. I know all you guys are rolling your eyes thinking NO NOT canadian tire but they do have alot of selection and offer alot of the same rubber as other shops. As for rims I would think canadian tire is not your choice inless you want to put Bling Bling Ford rims on you beautiful car.Not to sure about rims but I am sure that shops like derand would sell rims. They can even order certain rims that you would like. Matters how much you would want to spend. Here is a suggetion keep whats on your car know just change rubber and buy a really nice set of rims and rubber for the summer.

I bought just the tires from crappy tire, and had them put them on my black steelies.

I actually got a set of extra black steelies with my car

so anyways, I really love my "Michelin Arctic Alpins". They have a really sweet tread pattern, and work REALLY well in most conditions.

You can't go wrong with crappy tire. The only other place I'd suggest is price club. They have about the same rates as crappy tire, but have a bit better service.

Dany, ask Mike about tires too, he is the tire guy!

TeK: The Arctic Alpins you bought at Crappy Tire aren't the same one's you would buy at Frisby if you catch my drift. All tire companies make them a little different for wholesalers and the like. Did you just get these things?

Danny: Go to Frisby Tire in Kanata and ask for Mike Vandenburgh, tell him Mike Luedey sent you to see him about what would be best for your car.

The Alpins are a great tire but if you're concerned about spending too much money I would suggest the BF Goodrich Winter Slolom. I have those.....they're great!

They are okay imo, but, better take it from someone else besides me. Kumho's to me are middle of the road, not the best, but, not the worst either. I liked mine when I had them at one time.

I didn't know you could get "extra black" steelies

I'm looking at getting a second set of steelies... so i don't screw up the beading on the tires.

Gohanix.... also you might wanna try Commercial Tires on Star Top they are good as well.
