Calling Canadian Listers

[Ryan and Marjorie Fischer <rmfischer@sk.sympatico.ca>]

Hi all,

Unfortunately where I am located (Regina, Saskatchewan) there is little
in terms of parts/service for anyone who wants to "tune" Audi's (much
less anything else...).  I am considering ordering some parts from the
US...anyone have any experiences with this?   I know I have to fork over
for GST, a handling fee and of course exchange on my cdn $.  I am
wondering about additional duties, brokerage fees that I might get hit
with.

Presently, I am looking for new wheels and tires...I can get tires thru
local dealers, however they don't stock the ones I want (not
all-season!) and they bring them in from other cities.  Wheels however
present a problem...seems to be Crager or American Racing are my only
local choices...no Borbet, TSW, BBS etc.  I am looking for URL or phone
numbers/address of canadian shops which I can order tires/wheels
thru...anyone know of any??

If this doesn't pan out, very seriously considering ordering the whole
package from the Tire Rack.

TIA
Ryan
