Default local tire shop?

I need to get new OEM tires for my s2000 locally, and I tried a few shops around:

OK Tire, Kal Tire, tiretrend.com, dealer and I got a range from 650 to 900 (for the rear tires) material + installation.

are there any other shops you guys recommend? or is the above price somewhat standard?

Just over the border, in Bellingham, there's Discount Tire.

So can you just drive to the states, get your new tires installed and come back?

I always get so mad about how much we get ripped off here in Canada for products. The states is so much cheaper! I get my tires from down there.
