http://www.tirerack.com just ask them to ship FedEx and not UPS, they will do that. I get all my tires from there, takes three days shipping and they are at your doorstep. If they are made in Canada or USA, no duties, just PST/GST.

I drove down to the Les Schwab in Bellingham and had them bring in a set of Toyo Proxes 4 tires for me.

Cost me about $500 canadian total. (it was around $85US/tire plus installation)

(and I have been loving them ever since)

That sounds about right, I have toyo proxes zx4? right now and they are nice, but i badly need some new ones. 500$ installed seems about right, maybe I will need to settle for 195/60/15 again :(

The difference is Proxes ZX4s are summer tires.

Proxes 4 are the next gen from them and are all season tires.

Call a Les Schwab in the US and ask for pricing installed.

I didn't like the Proxes4, they just didn't perform that well for me, although I don't do any snow driving. My KDW-2s have lasted very well and are phenominal in the wet. Costed me just under 500 mounted/balanced.
