Best place to buy rims and tires, Ottawa, Canada?

I am looking for 18" rims with Blizzak winter tires for my 2022 Venza XLE.

Is Costco the best place to get the package?

Does Costco still do free seasonal tire swaps?

What upgrades/mods/services did you do after getting your Venza 2021-2024?

I am picking up a 2022 Venza XLE with 83000 km in 10 days. I tend to keep my cars for 10+ years.

I am getting Phantom Custom Car Floor Mats from Costco

I am spraying the footwell area with Scotchgard Protector spray to protect from overflowing snow/ salt water/ dirt.

What additions/mods/services did you do to your Venza?

Licence plate mount/ holder

I am buying a 2022 Venza XLE from the province of Quebec. Quebec does not use front licence plates.

My province uses a front licence plate.

What are my options? Does a holder using the threaded mount at the front bumber look good? Or drill the front bumper???

What should I check in 2022 Venza XLE?

I am looking to get a 2022 Venza XLE with 85000 km / 53000 miles. It has Toyota Platinum Warranty until 2029/200,000 km. Selling Toyota dealership is also the one who maintained it all along.

I have the Carfax which looks ok.

I will travel 2 hours to test drive it.

What should I be looking for during my inspection and test drive?

I am currently looking for a 2023/24 Venza XLE. I am avoiding the Limited because of the high replacement cost of the panoramic roof.

I test drove a 2024 LE today cuz that's all my local dealer had on hand. I also drove a 2024 RAV4 Hybrid.

It seems to me the Venza is quieter in the city but once you reach 110 km/h ( 70 mph), the wind noise is as loud as in a RAV4 hybrid, which is a little disappointing.

Am I correct in my assessment?
