Het TheMAN is 1010 still offerring studding on  applicable winter tires. IIRC it used to be an option or maybe I am thinking of Tire Rack?

Seems the free shipping is not free.  I was considering ordering some tires for the Forester, and it kept charging me $45 for shipping.  $45 is not free.

Oh, it's only on winter tires.  Shitty.

For fun I priced out a set and its came to $1560 BEFORE taxes. Same set I can get here in TO for only $1350 OTD.

Also....$50 to to install/balance tires?

Oh well, I tried.

Yep, OTD = Out The Door so technically I should have used IMD (In My Door). ;)

1010tires can be a rip off.  The independent stores, like Volco in Metro Vancouver have different prices too.  If you tell them you saw the price on 1010tires, they'll match the price.   I also don't trust the reviews of the tires either.

LOL, why wouldn't they. 1010tires owns Volco stores. Of course they would sell at the same price if u asked them to price match.

I asked 1010 why their steel wheels are so expensive ($90 at 1010, compared to $60 at Tire Rack and Tire Trends, and $70 at most retail shops) and they gave me this baloney of crap. lol.

Quote
Maybe because we don't buy enough steel wheels. 90% of all our customers buy cheaper alloy wheels for winter packages. Like Primax and Sport Edition wheels. Steel wheels make up a very tiny percentage of sales these days.
