Well, I’m finally at 4800 as of Monday here in Calgary. Seems like a lifetime waiting.
I ordered a set of FS01 rims from Carlos as well - as advertised. Good customer service - easy to deal with - if you want a quick update - he actually replies fairly fast!
Came across this YouTube video of their facility. Worth a quick watch.

Rims should arrive in the next few days - hoping for the car tomorrow!

Has it been lowered?

The c8 with the bronze FS06 wheels is factory height, most of these customers where early on clients that received cars like in April so no accessories where out yet

Thank you, that looks great, really fills the space without lowering.

I’m a fan of the FS01 in carbon flash. Darren has provided pricing but no info on duties to bring them into Toronto. Also, is the offset you mentioned greater than the stock offset? I’d like to get a bit more aggressive look. Thanks!

Unfortunately on our side we dont have an actual calculator to calculate your countries tax and duties But what can help is that when purchasing we actually put the manufacturing value which is lower then retail, As for off sets yes our specs are less so the wheel sit closer to the fender lines.

 

[RayG]

Thanks. Looks like my C8 order will go in in the next week. Can I buy your wheels through a Canadian supplier?

Yes you can, Simply Tire would be a good option, or I can help you out directly as well, I might not have a importing tax calculator but I can send you the wheels with manufaturing value which means even if they tax you 25-30% it will be extremely low cost

perhaps this was already covered, so sorry, but are they manufactured in the USA?
If yes, the duties should be quite low If any at all. I think it’s 6% if charged. then add the tax, 13% for Ontario.

wheels are built over seas

Ok, then the duty is much higher depending on the country of manufacture, usually around 20%. Probably better to go through your local Canadian reseller. Really nice products, thanks.

Love seeing all the different designs of wheels. Great thread.

Thanks Carlos! I found a calculator online and it states 6.1% on wheels built in Japan and sent from US with conversion and taxes on everything the set goes from $2400 US to $3950 Can. Please let me know what the manufacturing value is on the FS01 and I’ll recalculate.

Because of the free trade agreements NAFTA and now USMCA there's no duty you pay on items made in the states or Mexico. You just pay your taxes on the Canadian value of the goods plus any brokerage fees the delivery company charges to clear the goods through customs.

 

[RayG]

Yes MRR and dealing with Carlos was great. I'm very happy with mine. Here's a few pics of the first C8 convertible in Canada with MRR wheels on it.

Hi Sparro, did you do a factory swap of the tires? Are the rims 20x11 and 19x8.5?

No. I'm running 19x9.5 on 275s and 20x12 on 325s

What is the country of manufacture? Thanks.

Thanks! Looks amazing. My build looks identical to yours except I ordered it with adrenaline red interior. Can’t wait.
