Default Where to get new rubber in Durham?

It's getting time to ditch those 18" and AT's. Any suggestions on a good place to start looking in the Durham region. Wanna do 17" and 33 or 35. If anyone has any rubi rims or soft 8s or the like let me know. I wanna get ready for the next tour and they don't cut it.

Check out Taunton Tire. North East side of Townline and Tauton Rd (Oshawa/Courtice). Really good prices, they've hooked up most of the wheelers in the Durham area.

Taunton Tire's where I got my 35's. With that 2 inch BB you got 35's should look good. Mine you look horrible on your pocket book. But Taunton is the spot. ( Hint, they take down payments. Throw em 500 to get the ball rolling and every week drop em a bit more)

Is anyone around here rockin 15" wheels? After a lot of research I am really thinking about going that way. If so what's your setup? I am thinking ultra wheels 164 or eagle Series 185. Should look sick!
