I can take care of this but I am not right next to the border.  I am just
North of Seattle though, about a good hour drive or more from the border.  I
have done the same thing and got it mounted and balanced at a friendly
little place.

I use these guys (well, girls, actually...):

They're in Blaine, so it wouldn't be too far to the nearest WalMart.

Excellent service, and $2 per parcel if you buy a membership with them
($10 lifetime). They charge more for oversize things (tires would
qualify), but it's still very reasonable.

Hi North/West coast crew,
as I found the shipping for Hankook RA08 195 tires is extremely
expensive to Canada (either busdepot or tireseasy), I would like to ship
them to somewhere near the border in Bellingham or so and have them
mounted/balanced down there. Do you have some recommendations of a shop
that accepts these tires that I bought from an online shop and mounts
them for me? I know Walmart would do it, but I don't think I can ship to
them. I have no other shipping adress that I coudl use for picking them
up, so the shop who deals with them would be the best idea.
Thanks a lot
Cheers
Thomas
