help finding snow tires in ottawa, canada

[morsini]

Hello
this is my first post - i was wondering if anyone out there had some tips on where to find snow tires in ottawa, canada for my 07 CR-V. the dealers say they are all out - for the season! pardon my ignorance here, but is there something unique about the CR-V when it comes to finding the appropriate snow tire?
any help/guidance/suggestions would be appreciated.

The 2007-2007 CRV use an odd size that isn't too common. Last year i had 60 of these tires in my store room that i couldn't give away...this year i could have sold 3 times that many if i could have got my hands on them On another thread one member said he picked up P215/65R17's at Canadian Tire. Might be something to look into.

Piece of cake, I just went through the exact same thing:

Head to your nearest Canadian Tire right away and pick up a set of Michelin Latitude X-ice in a 215/65R17 size.
If you can't find those, then get a set of the Blizzak WS-60's in a 215/65R17 instead.
