They do  indeed sell tires of all types and sizes for the mainstream.
Unfortunately the  Westy isn't a mainstream thing for them.

    Ah, just one minute there........Canadian Tire is a  Michelin Tire dealer
and they can get the Agilis tire so coveted by Westy  drivers.  Usually you
have to fight with the counter person to get them to  call their warehouse and
find out that, Yes, they do indeed have them !   AND if they were to actually
read their tire catalogue under TRUCK tires, they  will find the Michelin
Agilis listed there !  I ALWAYS ask for a commission  when I have to go through
these antics to purchase something they say they don't  have but in fact I KNOW
they have them.
