Due to the success and wicked prices of the last group buy and the fact that I had to unfortunately turn down a few people from adding to the buy in fear that I was overselling my capacity to transport the tires (sorry!!) I’ve decided to have a go at round 2.

This one will be less rushed and depending on what vehicle I use for transportation limited to 20-30 wheels and/or tires once again.

There is currently not group buy end date, I will post in the thread once the time comes closer depending on interest.

So, I’m bringing tires and wheels up from the US and they generally 25%+ cheaper than buying in Canada.

Wheel and Tire combinations can be pre-mounted and balanced FREE OF CHARGE.

Professional Heat Cycling is also available for Race Compound Tires at USD $16 per tire. (Highly Recommended, use google if you arent familiar with this process)

**I require a deposit of 30% before I consider you a part of this group buy** Deposit payment can be made by EMT (preferred) or in Cash. The remainder of the balance must be paid when you pick up the product.

Some examples of pricing from the last group buy are below as well as some recommended wheel and tire combinations that are kick-ass in price. Please feel free to request pricing on any brands, makes, models or sizes that I can get. (look at manufacturer lists below)

Available Wheel Brands are as follows:

Here is an example price for a wheel AND tire combo that are good sizes and sexy. The price below is IN YOUR HANDS, it includes all taxes, border fees, mounting an balancing fees, etc.

All you need is lug nuts (I can get these also I believe).

This is for a full set of 4 identical wheel/tire combos

The Tires are the following:  
Nankang NS-1 Radial  
Ultra high performance is now available at a very affordable price. H speed rated.  
225/45R-17XL 94H BSW  
UTQG: 340AA

The Wheels are the following:  
MB Wheels Weapon  
Dark gray finish, clear-coated.  
17X8 / 5-114.3 / Offset +28GM  
 ![http://jammin.jshost.ca/mbwheels.jpg](http://jammin.jshost.ca/mbwheels.jpg)

The total cost in your hands for these, ready to bolt on to your car is **only CAD$950**

You simply can’t get decent looking brand new wheels and tires mounted and balanced for less than a grand, anywhere.

Anyhow, it’s just a suggest - there are other sizes, styles and colors available.

There is a 5 spoke version of this wheel that approx $7 or $8 more per wheel that is also sexy

its also availble in bronze.

Hundreds of other combos available also… some much cheaper than these (i just particularly like the style of these which is why i chose them for the example).

Not avail, sorry. (possibly just not in that size… if you’ve already confirmed that they are avail in that size then I cannot get them sorry)

However when I did come up with the following which are on special right now for pretty cheap if you or anyone else is interested:

Dunlop SP Sport 8000  
One of today’s favorite ultra high performance tires  
P235/45ZR-17 MFS  
UTQG: 200AA  
**CAD $122 per tire**

Only 8 left in stock, possibly discontinued? I know these are fairly high performance tires and the price is just silly cheap right now.
