Everything installed with mid muffler delete is close to $160 but the dynomax 24235 is $80 plus tax

I got my 255/40 17 from discount tire direct shipped to usaaddress inc 5 mins across the border to niagara falls.

560 shipped there, 700 shipped to toronto. You pay usaddress 25 bucks to recieve the item, then pay gst at customs. Helps if you take someone with you.

Honestly there's a bunch of local shops that have a good selection of name brand tires that you dont have to order and drive to US to pickup... i personally was shopping for a while when i got my 19" rims + tires... cheapest i found was a place in Scarborough called Rim and Tire shop.

I'm gonna just wait till I get my new rims to spend the big money on tires, so I needed rear tires asap cuz mine r bald. So ended up goin to a spot by my work, they said it would take 25min to mount n balance them, but instead took 1hour. So as he hands me the keys he says "sorry for the wait, by the way we painted ur cailipers red at no extra charge for the wait and it looks good". I SNAPPED and said WTF! At least u could have done black which was my future plan, he said come back another day and they will re paint em. $70 is what they charge for painting. So now I have red cailipers. I hate them lol

That sounds dope! I need to do that mod this summer for sure. Money is kinda tight. I have a desination wedding to pay for but I'll need to make a slight exception. Rob, do you have the contact info? I might want to pay them a visit this weekend. Thanks

Not sure the exact price i got my tires for cuz i bought them in a package with rims.. I got 19" 235/35/19 Nexen N1000's Tires and ASA brand Rims, got both mounted and installed and everything for $1360. Granted the Nexen's aren't expensive, woulda been alot more with Hankooks for example..

But on a side note, i was originally thinking of the Hankook V12's that everyone has, until the guy at the shop told me he suggests i get the Nexen N1000's that apparently use the same compound as the Hankooks V12's and the tread pattern is nearly identical (he sounded pretty passionate about the info and seemed to know alot about the company how the CEO of Nexen used to work for Hankook? something like that.. and its not like it made a difference to him regardless what i choose, i was still buying from him). Also was told these are not the same as the N3000's which are loud and have different compound.. and so far they are pretty silent and traction is real nice, i would def recommend based on value for price.

But that also being said, I wouldn't say they are BETTER than legit Hankooks or Continental DWS's (haven't tried either), just a less expensive alternate option that everyone seems to be sleeping on.

What kind of place paints shit on your car without informing you? That's whack man! Are you getting them re-painted for free? Or are they charging you $70?

Stage 3 sounds dope btw! But I think I'm gonna gonna be smart and save all modding money for coil overs and then focus on exhaust haha

And pearl did the relay mod work perfectly and get rid of the hyper flash? I'm nervous about messing around with the relay. I might just deal with hyper flash since I barely use signals for longer than a couple seconds. I just wanted switchbacks for the clean all white front look.

Oh and 2nd time around tires on keele street seemed to have a crazy selection of tires. Plus they seemed to have every possible rim you could ask for. Not sure if anyone else has heard of them but my mechanic referred them

Joe, isn't that going to affect your emission? Let us know how the ETD feels. Did you get new engine mounts too.

Yea they r gonna re paint them for free, they better or else I'd make them buy my new calipers, and the relay mod worked perfect, for me. But like I said if running leds in the front and back then ur gonna have to double up on the resistors, .12ohm is what u need if u just have front leds, .24ohms if ur running both, OH YEA and the DIY didn't mention any SOLDERIN so don't just attempt to yank out the old shunk resistor or you'll break the circut board.
