Any Canadian's Purchase Wheels from EAS or **********s?

Hi All,
Just wondering if any Canadian's have purchase wheels from EAS or **********s? If so approximately how much were you charged by the shipper (UPS or whoever) on delivery. I'm just trying to get an idea if it's going to be worth any savings after paying duty, brokerage fees, et all to buy from the US or just pay up front by buying from a Canadian supplier. The price quote I've gotten from both EAS & **********s works out to be about $150 cheaper before import charges (but including shipping). Hearing about anyone's experiences would be helpful. Thanks in advance.

Hi Dave,

I'm also interested in seeing if anyone has bought through these US vendors especially since the exchange rate is quite good right now. Maybe you should post a thread in the general section as some Canadian members hardly check this section.

Cheers,
Al

avoid using UPS because they charge a lot for the brokerage

Just ordered a air scoop and filter that came to just over $200. UPS charged me $54 extra!! ARGH!

I was quoted ~$90 total fee providing I pick the rims up myself at the airport when they arrive versus picking them up at my door. I'll post a total review when the rims arrive.

Got the wheels for only $68 import duty paid at Pearson airport. See my other thread for all of the details.
