Want to get a set of BF Goodrich V-rated Traction T/As. All the shops in Lethbridge though said they had to get them in from thier warehouse in Edmonton, and there was only 3 up there in the size I wanted, so I'd have to wait a while for a new shipment from BF Goodrich. What, does this so-called warehouse supply every tire dealer in the province? Are there any shops that would likely have them in stock? I want to get them by next week.

No Idea but I got those tires for my dad from Tirecraft (sponsor) and they are AWESOME!!! Best tires! You should just call Tirecraft, maybe they have it in stock.....

try Anand @ mytires.ca

I bet he could beat the prices you got including shipping to Lethbridge

On second thought, I bought some tires from Tirecraft for our 4Runner and they had to be transported in from Edmonton........maybe they do have the same supplier?:dunno:

BF Goodrich is the warehouse...

What size are the tires you're looking for?

Haha, so probably everyone in the province gets them from there afterall.
Size is 205/50-16

I've got connections through other sources... I will check in the morning and see if I can track you down some. If they are on a national wide factory backorder though, it may be tough...

Word is that they are due to arrive at the warehouse in the next 1 to 2 weeks if all goes proper...
