What's wrong with Canadian tire for out of province. Make sure you DRLs are ok and that's it. B&L, Kal tire, FT or harper's tire are going to be better though. Same procedure

What problems have you had with CDN Tire? I got one from CDN tire on my BMW and it was fine.

Well it all depends on which one you go to...but i have had several problems with them...like ball joints needed to be replaced when i had replaced them the day before..

I would just stay away if it was me.

Certigard on 17th ave SW and 37th street is a good one.

I have heard of problems if you are actually getting your car fixed there, but nothing about inspections. Infact you might be better off, because they might not catch everything lol.
