winter package

To all the Canucks here...are the Rial wheels available in Canada?

Has anyone had TireRack deliver directly to Canada? In addition to the
requisite taxes and potential duties depending on provenance of wheels and tires, they seem to use UPS exclusively to Canada which usually involves costly charges for clearing customs.

A couple of local dealers have recommended RWC wheels (particularly the BM05 model) to me. Anyone have experience with theses? Are Replica Wheels of Canada made in China?

Thanks in advance for any feedback.

FWIW ... everyone I know refuses to have anything shipped to CA using UPS because of their brokerage fees. Their costs are ridiculous to the point that several refused the parcel.

Just to add something as well, i wanted a certain Sony camera and I found it on Amazon, I paid 230 for the camera. UPS charged me $99 brokerage fee for that litle parcel and for that value. I could refuse it but I wanted that camera. Since then no UPS fo me ever, and I will never use UPS.

There are few third party tuners that bring those wheels in Canada. If you don't have one in Toronto give us a buzz, I guess regardless they are in the west they can still order them for you and have them shipped directly to you. Yes the wheels are available in Canada, I bought a pair myself in the past.

Well, The Rial Salernos and Dunlop M3 WinterSport runflats will be just at $2000 to my door in Toronto via TireRack. I've had quotes for about $500 less with these tires and other BMW replicas which is probably what I'll go with...

Being 3mm close on the inside should not be an issue.

I run a set of 245/45 R17s on my stock wheels (offset of 34). This comes out to almost 9mm closer, so you 3mm should be a no-brainer.
