I think I might just order them from tirerack and avoid the taxes (8.5) and have them installed in the states.
Ship to blaine, pick up and install.
It is cheaper than having them ordered from discount tire co because they take into account shipping when price matching. Going to call in tomorrow or sat to cancel my order.
97x4 = 388 + shipping to blaine (51.34) = 439.34
439.34 x conversion rate x 2.5 MC rate = around 455
Then I picking up from Hagen's is like 4x3.5= 14
455+14= 469
Installation is like 16/tire? 16x4=64
469+64=533

wouldn't hagens consider the 4 tires as one package and just go by weight . so it would be $5 (45-100lbs)
thanks saving me the time on figuring out everything.

All the better.
I'll let you know when my tires come in or what not. If yours comes in before mine, tell me how your story goes.
Where are you planning to have them installed?

how much does it cost to get tires mounted here? I'm contemplating just going to discount tire. IF I order from tirerack the tires are 750 with shipping + there is a 70 dollar rebate http://www.tirerack.com/images/tires...ichelin_TR.pdf
but If I buy from discount tire it's 900 fully mounted balanced warrantied etc...

Better question is where can you mount/balance the tires in the states but not buy your tires from that store?

Discount Tire. I don't think they care where you buy your tires from. It's still a service they provide.

I'm going to give them a few days and if they do not, I will give them back. If there isn't an immediate solution, I'm going to dispute the charge on my CC.
And I went to the Costco in Burlington but it seemed like they don't mount + balance tires that aren't bought at Costco. Seemed odd to me...?

I guess it was just for the tires I was looking at. It said for residents of the US only. Especially the ones where they give you a pre paid MC or Visa.

I wonder if I can use this rebate. http://www.michelinpromo.ca/Fall2010MICHELIN_ENG.pdf
if not i can get the american rebate sent to hagens. spent 3 bucks for $70.

I just changed my order from tirerack from the extremewintercontacts to XI2.
Either way, i'm sure I'll be satisfied with the results.
As for the rebate, I think you need to have a US BILLING address vice a US shipping address.
Though you may want to give Michelin a call to find out personally if the Canadian one works.

I ordered a set of X-ice2 from Tirerack on Wednesday morning, and just got a email confirming they arrived in Blaine, pretty quick service.

P.S. Did they call you?
