I got my tires from Tire Rack, delivered to Blaine, and I imported them
myself so as to avoid the exhorbitant brokerage charges levied by UPS and
FedEx.

I realise that this isn't an option that is available to everybody.

My son recently purchased a set of ultra high performance Yokies at Discount
Tire in Bellingham for 60% of the best price he could find in Vancouver, 49%
of the worst price!
This is a viable option if you visit the US at all.
