you got PM

 

They are okay - a small step up in performance (and price) from the Yokohama ES100 and Kumho Ecsta SPT, but a step down from the best top-of-the-line tires around, like the Goodyear F1 GS-D3 and Bridgestone S-03.

Tire prices in Canada are always so much higher than in the States. Here, you can get that size for USD60 (which is about CAD69), at onlinetires.com. They're in California; I don't know how much it would cost you in shipping and duty or whether they're worth getting from here rather than there.

 

im gettin those next week... 215 40 16 for 120ish/ea

...i work at town fair tire

 

i think imma get a set to try out. 60 bucks a tire is a steal

60 bucks a tire only buys you 195/50-15, which is fine for pre-'96 Civics, but too small for Integras.

damn. and here i am with a 2000 integra, 1996 civic, and a 1998 civic. wouldnt the 195/50 work...it'd just throw off my speedo and maybe wear off a bit faster?

Yes, exactly. And there's no reason to do that when there are so many decent, similar tires available in 195/55-15 and 205/50-15...

Sadly yes they are much moer expensive...which is why I do all my rubber shopping with our friends south of the border

I remember when I got my first set of rims, 17" heliums and 205/40/17 Toyo Proxes...$980cdn from a US store...in Canada, that would have been $1600-$1700! with taxes. Now I got 205/40ZR16 Azenis for $450cdn (400usd) shipped to a friend in Ohio....those in Canada...like $750-800 with taxes

If you can get T1-R's for that (which is $25 a tire cheaper then many other places, unless your price is tax in, in whih case it'd be around $40 cheaper then other places) why not run'em. Toyo has great customer service and they make pretty good rubber. It won't be as sticky as say Azenis RT-615, but its not meant to be. and they will still have plenty of grip and last alittle longer then max grip tires like the Azenis
