Hmmm.. looking like a good idea for 'someone' to buy a 40/60 AT 265/17's, ship them, and re-sell...

Anyone knows definitively what the tax rate is on tyres, without rims?
I could get a cheapp quote on the shipping.

was askin my uncle d same ting since he brings down stuff frm Miami

he suggested not to ship tyres alone, slap som rims on those babies an they'd be classed as used items, alot less taxes to be payed.....not sure if any1 can confirm this

i heard Dualstar brings down stuff for ppl at reasonable prices, u cood probly chek him

IIRC, the import duty on tyres is 30%. Not sure about rims but it might be the same.
