Are you sitting down? The wheels were $2300, and the tires about $2100. Then I got dinged over $400 for our fabulous HST tax that the last government sneaked in right after they were elected. I don't have many toys so I decided to pop for the solid rims and new radial rubber. I just got tired of trying to find decent replacement rims. I spent over two months looking for some, with little in way of results. Either people didn't get back to me or they wouldn't take a tire off to see if they were rusted, like my originals, before I bought them. Now I can have these serviced just about anywhere, and they will certainly out live me.
