Brand new Bridgestone Blizzaks for sale (225/50 R18)

If you live in Ottawa then you'll need winter tires, that's why I'm letting you know. I went in to Initial Tuning and saw that they are selling these tires and there the last ones available for a while. They are offering a great deal on these tires, i almost just bought some myself lol.

Anyway they are asking $227.50 for each tire, which in that size is a bargin.
$910.00 for the set of 4.

"Initial Tuning Inc." is located at 18 E Enterprise, which is off of Merival.

Phone # is (613) 739-8000 (Ask for John)

good price, I paid $310 a tire last season, but by the time I got to ordering, blizzaks in that size we're selling like hot cakes/availablity was close to none...

I went to them last November for mine, got a nice set of RTX Hemlock wheels/tire package, clean install, nice people. We had to test fit a bunch of wheels, but they helped me out, just kept ordering hahaha... Could've been a bit quicker [or I should have gone in sooner , csrt4 + bald tires + snow = :S (I paid in early Nov, tires came in Dec), but I did decide to go into the shop right during SEMA (when the main guys were down in Vegas, shop was down a few people)

I already got mine or I'd jump at 'em

Anyone else decided its cheaper to buy a winter beater than winter tires?

At 1000$ for the tires plus another 500-1000 for rims it seems to make sense to me to just garage the car for the winter and avoid having it rot after a couple years.

I figure 2000$ for a beater in quebec should last me a couple winters "low ks just use it to get to work".

After watching my first new car "jeep tj 05" slowly deteriorate after 4 years I just dont know if I cant watch my baby be sacrificed to the salt gods.
Sure its a pain to have a winter car but in 8 years the Cali will still look new.

Anyone else come to this same conclusion?
Or am I the only willing to let my car sit for the winter?

I did come to that conclusion... but then I ran past it and decided to keep driving'er (I'm also on a lease... so... really, it's silly to park a leased vehicle unless you're overmileage)

I dropped just shy of $2,500 CAD for a wheel/tire combo, they work/look great, so I'm happy. I seriously think my CSRT4 is better on the snow covered highways than my TJ or Liberty ever were.

I definitly could've bought a beater jeep or car for that kinda money...

I do think parking your csrt4 in the winter will definitly make the car last a whole longer/stay in better shape, but I'm still at the point where I'm not sure I'm gonna buy it out.
