I don't know about the absolute best deal.  However, I have found Discount Tire to be an excellent place to do business.  For any given tire, they will meet any price you find, including from any online source, and will not charge shipping if they can get the tire from another Discount store anywhere.  They claim that they can get any tire you want.  I assume that would include the one quoted below.  I have no relationship to the company or any of its employees other than being a satisfied customer.
