Im going for a surf trip next weekend around old orchard beach and i just wanna know if there's a shop in Maine where i can buy a set of azenis ? Azenis are 200$ cheaper in the states compare to Canada, i think i should a set over there instead of buying them here.

 

You can see if tirerack.com has a place of installation there where you are going,

That way, they can be ordered, paid for and sent there and you just show up and slap em on.

http://www.tirerack.com , they got some good prices!

 

Orchard Beach in the Bronx?

lol

The only thing surfing there is used condoms and diapers.

lol!

I dont think tirerack carries Falkens. Go to american tires.

 

Not in Bronx but near Portland, Maine. Tirerack dont have falken

 

i paid $340 shipped to my door for four of them

they are on sale right now for $72 a piece

 

I think you didnt get it, im from Canada and i wanna buy them in the states and no way to have them ship to canada cause of the borders fees. Ive found some at america tires but they are 87$/tire and no place to pick them up in Maine

 

so if you are visiting Maine, look up a tire shop that could order them in for you. When you are there pick them up and drive them back across, or drive on them across. Does that solve your problem?

 

yeah exactly what i want to do

 

Most tires are a whole lot more money (even after currency conversion) in Canada than in the States. It's not just the Azenis.

For example, take the Yokohama ES100 in 195/55-15:

Tire Rack (U.S.) USD64 (CAD71)
Talon Tire (Canada) USD105/CAD118

 

thats sucks, i dont know why its like that

 

Discount Tire carries Falken.

...bingo! that's why i got my RA1s in the US. I did NOT have a fun time explaining that to customs "uh.. they were in my car when i came down here.."

everything is much more expensive by the time it is 'imported' to canada.

depending on which states you're travelling to, i'd just finding one along the way that has the lowest sales tax and have them installed then and there (calling ahead of course).

A few years ago, the RA-1 in 205/50-15 was back ordered in the States, but I was able to buy a set and have it shipped from Talon Tire. So that border can be worked to advantage in both directions, depending...
