TireRack has nothing to do with it..it's CCRA....

You will likely have to pay brokerage fees if you ship to Canada....and then Taxes

When I brought mine throughin Vancouver I paid .....GST and PST...and no duty

because the winter tires here are like almost 3 times the price as the ones on tirerack

Depending on who delivers them...they will likely come to your door with taxes owing... that could be added to a credit card I'm sure

Canada Customs is very good about taking your money

Yes, that's the case. Total price including taxes and brokerage is displayed at the check-out page.

It'll say on the total price. Their breakdown is quite complete.
