  1. Thanks all for the input. Not all of the recommended tires were available in the size I needed. The one tire shop felt the Blizzak would wear out on the dry pavement that I would likely see a lot of. The idea of an all terain with a winter rating seamed like best option. I found Cooper AT/ W that are a harder compund with a good tread wear rating that had the peak symbol. 

    $1100 tax balance etc installed on freshly black chromed winter wheels

    Hey Bob, I've run both the coopers and Hercs, best value winters out there. Great traction, noise was fine.

      Nokian  Hakkas  were on my latest ford,  really like these tires, wore well, super traction and noise was at a decent level.

      My brother just put on K02's,  another of my employee's has them as well. Work great with some good tread depth, wear well, noise level is good but more so than his stock good years.  

    He swears his gas mileage has dropped though. He likes them so far, good mud ripping at our farm last weekend. Brother has a 17 Ram, kid who works for me has a 16 chev diesel. Bro got the ko2's for under 1500 tax in. Aurora AT tire, owner was my neighbor once upon a time.

     

       Let put together a ride this winter,

    Hey John, I have heard the heavy lug tires can kill mileage. I am hoping there will be a lot more local riding this season than last, be good to get out riding with you. 

  3. Thanks for suggestions, I will call around this am. The Canadian Tire website is down right now and the one dealer close to me wanted to sell me Blizzaks only but he is listed as a Hercules dealer also- will try him again. 

  4. I need a set of 4 snows or simply tires with snow peak symbol for my truck, I have the rims already. My concern is wear as I commute 80kms+ per day, I am looking for opinions, here is what I have been looking at:

    275/60 R20

    1. Blizzaks $1200 all in at Costco. Soft and I think wont last

    2. Nokian Hakkapeliitta. $1700!!

    3. Cooper Discover A/TW. All season tire but winter rated $1200

    4. bf goodrich ko2  All season tire but winter rated $1300

    5. Michelin- no tire available

     

    Thanks

  5. Cayo Coco have the best beaches in Cuba. That small airport was convenient as the peninsula is really isolated from Mainland. It would be nice if they build another Sandals under the reconstruction.

  6. My wife has a 2016 Mazda 3 GS. She absolutely loves it and she usually only cares about a colour but she praises it all the time. I like it and the quality and comfort of seats makes it nice to be in IMO. The other car I would consider would be a 2017 civic but its a bit pricey for same options.

    65K on this is insane anyway you look at it, the little guy exposed some of the BS happenings and I'm sure that was his overall intention.

    I would shut my business down before I ever had to compete in the whores market these contractors do.

    No contractors. Own forces and money is for other programs. $65 gs for geotech,  design and construction. No way, money left to pay for other projects that went over budget

  8. 65 grand is a budget where the city needs money on another project.  I do admire the intentions of the builder but the reality is they are poor . 

  9. getiin tired of readin threads on rug munchers and spoiled brats or terrorists. This is for you degens and homophobics and fkrs from Markdale.

    That was the huge three buoys houseboat rental fleet HQ years ago. We are almost neighbour's,  our cottage is 10 mins up the road or 15 min boat ride. I'll have to pop in one weekend. We have some catching up to do.

    Sounds good john. 

  11. My house- an older bungalow was close to the 115 and not far to the new 407 interchange. It sold for more than 100g's than what real estate said I should list at. I sold to someone who commutes to Oshawa and wanted out of there, bought a brand new larger fully finished custom built home that is 10 times the quality and even has a dock on Buckhorn for same money. Awesome market!
