Yes, Edge indeed has great prices, but on R compounds, not so great compared to Canadian prices- especially when the Toyo discount is taken into consideration. The RA-1s in 225/50/16 at Edge is $192.00. This is slightly more than the Toyo discounted price in Canada. Then you factor in the shipping and installation and you might ask yourself: Where is the saving?

shipping + taxes + duty

+ the infamous "brokerage fees" if you get them shipped straight here, or the time & gas to go pick them up Stateside if you don't

Even getting them installed in the US is SUPER expensive in most shops. Some charge as much as $25 per wheel for mounting and balancing on alloy wheels

EdgeRacing prices are day to day prices. While the deal we got from Toyo/Talon is 1) Club Discount plus 2) Clearance discount. I doubt that we'll get the ame prices year after year. Still happy with the opportunity.

Talon's everyday price on the 225/50/16 RA-1 is $235.00. That compares favourably with the USD $192 at Edge where all the other "extras" that we take for granted are tacked onto the final price. Like Eric mentioned... shipping, installation, duties, brokerage fees.

Long distance charges these days is cheap. If Talon can get you the tires you need and at the right price, then that LD cost is a very cheap cost of doing business.

I have just been informed (by Toyo) that the 40% discount for Toyo R-Compounds will be maintained for club members in 2009. When ordering, please put BMW Quebec in the "Car Club" field to make sure you get the correct discount rate. Your name will be cross-referenced with the list I have supplied to Toyo.

hmmm.

Is there any possibility they'll eventually offer discounts on non-R-Compound tires? I prefer to run high-end street tires and avoid all the hassle of tire changes

I don't know. The R1R looks interesting too. I just emailed the Toyo rep about it.

Thanks for keeping everyone up to date, Henry. Prices on the remaining stock of RA-1's are incredible. I'll have to check to see what sizes are left.

Emre,

Please check with John at Talon. However, I suspect the size choices among the remaining stock of RA1s may be quite limited.
