No duty on tires just HST or whatever taxes you pay in your province. I buy all my tires through the US.

Just had my second rotation at 10,000 miles they measure 15/32 tread depth and 18/32 is new so looking to get a lot of miles out of them.

Seems like i'll be quite happy with my choice- Supposed to arrive Thursday, I'll balance them on Friday at school and post pictures then. Anyone know if there's anything different about dismounting old tire/mounting and balancing new ones with the whole TPMS thing? Thanks!

I am putting on a set of 315/70/17's Thursday. Can't wait. As far as the TPMS goes, they have to be broken down and then rebuilt back to the new tire. Expect to pay around $25 per tire for everything.

Missed the part about keeping wheels. No problems then I believe.
