Default Need help from my fellow Honda-tech members - (an honest one ;)

I need to get a pair of Nitto 555R tires in 205/45 -16. These tires are not sold in Canada and http://www.tires.com is out of stock. I can send you the money for the tires through paypal. I just need someone to purchase the tires and ship them to me (M5G2H5) in Toronto Canada.

Just tell me how much this would cost and I will send you the cash. If you are willing to help me, just PM me.

(Mods sorry, this is not ITR related, but somehow I have more trust in the ITR owners )

It's probably best to have a NY/NJ/NH/CT member hook you up to save you on shipping. I'd do it, but I'm way down south and will cost you $$$ to ship it up there + tariff.

Just an idea [since you are in Toronto]:

Order tires thru Tire Rack; if they cant send to a Canadian address, have them sent to one of their recommended installers in the Buffalo area, then drive down and pick them up

A 16" rim is the smallest that I can run due to my brakes. The only drag radial in 16" size is the Nitto. I would love to run the BFG drag radial, but there is not 16" size. Slicks are only made in 13", 14" and 15" sizes, so I am out of luck there

I'd help you out but I'm down in Colorado.
Just out of curiousity, when shipping something from the states, can't you put "gift" on that paper you fill out and save the person in Canada some $$?

this may not be a very good comparison but if you need 16's why not get the azenis. I have them and i love them, but i've also heard nothing but good about those nitto's
