Try Steelcase in Markham, I think they're around $15/tire.
If you plan to keep the car for a while, you should REALLY just buy a second set of wheels. You can get steel wheels for like $50 each, which is the equivalent of swapping the tires 3 times.

+1 for a second set of rims.. I don't pay to have mine swapped the dealer does it for no charge to swap my winter rims for my summers and vice versa.. Though I usually do my summers myself because I get eager
![]() That's for my second car, the BRZ sits in a barn in the winter and wears summers full time.
