Default Tire installer recommendation needed...

I was really surprised about the non-competitive quotes I got here in Vancouver so I figured I would save the tax as well and ship to Portland. The closest Tirerack recommended intsaller is A N T at 8131 N Interstate. Anyone have experience with them?

Skip knows his wheels and does excellent work at a great price. I believe he charges $25 a corner for mount and balance.

Richies Tire (Tire factory) next to WalMart on Mill Plain mounted and balanced the tires on my Volks for $70 and did a good job, no scuffs that I could see.

Thanks for the tips... with the prices going up and time running out in my schedule I went ahead and ordered with shipment to A N T. They have a good rating and are easy for me to get to.

After marginal results with cheaper tires, especially it the wet I chose to get the Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3 after trying them in the rain on another car.

On recommendation from multiple members, I recently used America's Tire and they were great.
