Default Canadian Tire tires any good?

Are motomaster tires any good? There is a new store in town, with pretty deals on right now, but I dont know anybody that has had them.

Other than the brand new ones I have on my new truck, I have used them on all my vehicles. Good warranty, reliable tires....good thing is if you need to get one fixed there is Crappy tire stores everywhere.....

Never had a problem with them over the many years of using them.

Canadian Tire tires used to be made by Michelin dont know if they still are but there only a couple of tire plants in North America that make most of the tires on the road.

Remember that the Red Deer Can Tire ( the Southern one) and Calgary's Macleod Trail at Southland Drive locations both still have gun counters. Canadian Tire $$ to firearms is my favorite conversion, 3 so far and ready for # 4. Just what to choose.......

Default CT

I fill all vehicles up at Canadian Tire gas Bar and get about 15 bucks in CT money a week. It's paid for my Ice Cube, and will be paying for my winter tires this year.

I buy those tires for my truck when they go on sale (I have a little s15 pickup). $59.99 a tire, good warranty. I had a defective set once (sidewalls peeled) and they replaced them free. I got 70 000 km on the last set and around 60 000 km on the set before. I drive a lot of gravel and rough roads or i think they'd even last a bit longer. Good value though. Used to put them on my comuter car as well (ford tempo), work like all other tires. The guy at crappy tire said they'd even repair them if i back over a nail, good warranty if you ask me.

I've used the rough rider all terrains and the m/s. The all terrains are far from all terrain and more highway tires than anything. Absolutely zero grip at the mere sight of mud or snow and I'd say I got average mileage out of them. The m/s dug pretty good (especially in snow) and actually didn't wear to bad. The warranty I had was awesome. I had a gashed tire that they couldn't fix so they put a new tire on. I informed them that it would be hard on my 4 wheel drive so they just put brand new tires on all round for free. The best part is my tires were almost ready to be replaced anyways.

Ask if their "Belt-O'-Glass" tire is available in your size.
