Tire Shops in the GTA - A4 1.8 Quattro

Other than the Audi dealers, anyone know of any reputable places where I can buy tires in the GTA (that also do installation and wheel alignments)?

I am in the Scarborough area but stores in the GTA would also work.

Also, any suggestions for all season tires? Currently looking at either the Pirelli P6s or Michelin MX4. Any other suggestions are welcome!

Thanks!

When I lived in Toronto, I bought some tires from a place in Brampton (this was 2000). I can't remember the name, but they had good service and great prices.

I just got some Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 summer tires. They have similar all-seasons.

Testing the New Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus

Also, if you're close to the border, it's sometimes cheaper to go down to the US, buy tires and pay the tax on the way back. I did that recently and still saved $100 per tire!

Re: Tire Shops in the GTA - A4 1.8 Quattro

Lately the trend has been to order your tires from Tirerack.com who will ship them to an installation place just over the boarder. Drive down, swap out the tires and drive back. Put the saved cash into something else. I am in need of new tires myself and plan on doing this with a new set of Michelin Pilot Sports.
