Hankook RS3's - Where to buy? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

v1beeee · 06-19-2016, 09:17 AM

I'm looking to buy a set of RS3's in 225/45/17 in the GTA but the tire shops I've looked at seem to not carry them according to their online catalogue.

If anyone has a shop the carries them, I'm all ears.

1010tires has them:

They might be able to get them shipped to you. They have good pricing too.

Wheelsco in Vaughn.

Give simply tires a call 416-916-9233 (ask for Chris)
or tires23, both places have treated me well.

Wheelsco is a vender for the forum, so might as well hit em up LOL

Try these places... from what I've seen and experienced they have the best pricing going.

The last set of RS3's I bought was from Tires23 and was about $810 taxes in, mounted and balanced.

Tires23 can get you almost anything - even if they don't carry it normally. I sent a fellow with a really REALLY old Lotus and tires23 managed to hook him up with a competitor who sold vintage rubber. They really do take care of the folks who show up to their door regardless whether or not they actually make a sale. They are good folks and understand what we need without the shady shit you get from places like Active Green and Ross (which can vary depending on the franchise).

Both cars in my sig were outfitted by Tires23. I always shop around to at least 3 vendors before buying.

Thanks guys for the info.

I'll be sure to give these places a call once my wheels come in!

I actually suggest emailing Tires23 - they do email quotes and will honor them unlike some other places.

Also note, their prices are OUT THE DOOR PRICES. No taxes, environmental fees, etc. to add on - what you see is what you pay. All the other places I've checked don't do this and there's a "surprise" at the end.

It's 2016. There shouldn't be a surprise, of course there's taxes lol

Yeah but people forget that Tires23 is all inclusive - that isn't normal practice. Other places is strictly tires, no install, no balance, environmental fees, etc. etc.

You probably never been to Wheels Direct, they've been around a lot longer than Tire23 and a standard quote is always all inclusive.
