The price will include installation by local shop.....As I am unfamiliar with the rules on rennlist....PM me for pricing on these popular Porsche models....and if there are any sizes you want a price on...don't hesitate to ask.
I am not affiliated with this shop....Just has done work for me before and is a Porsche enthusiast

Looks like it's just the two of us that want to utilize the power of a volume buy to get a better deal. That, or we are the only ones who need new rubber this season. Anyway, put me down for a set of MPSS. I'd rather wait till the 315s come out. But if it doesn't happen till mid May, I'll go with 305s. When were you planning on getting a set?

I will need a set of cup tires this spring but as mentioned in the other thread
I'm buying them from Conusmers Tire on Bridgeland. IMHO They happened to have the best price for Michelin tires, and they install.

Or you can just call me and I can hook you up with the right person. 480 stores across canada and a $6.99 road hazard warranty. Last time I checked, Canadian Tire was close to tire rack by the time you bring the tire into Canada. If you want to drive to the US it will be hard to beat them BUT you have no warranty and no shop to install them. The price for a set of 993 widebody cup tires was about $100 higher than the tire rack (delivered to your door) but included the warranty and installation, plus you support a Canadian franchised business.

I'm cautioning you though, there is VERY little margin in Tires. Canadian Tire can get you Michelin and Pirelli.
