Sorry for the but what kind of tires are you getting?
I like America's Tires way better (Greenburg exit from 217). They are cheaper & will match Les Schwab (even though they are rarely cheaper) & even any price on www.discounttiredirect.com since it's the same company. They don't charge shipping. They will even match tirerack.com prices but they factor in shipping for that.

from Ft. Lewis, just take I-5 south... go into portland, and follow the highway signs to 26 west... easy really... if you end up going ALL THE WAY THROUGH portland, no worries. just head south to hwy217 (beaverton) and follow it all the way to 26 west... its cake really... www.mapquest.com will help ya too!

That's true but try not to pass it & go back up 217 as it will add about a half hour to your journey

If I was you, I would print that out & take a drive to America's Tires off the Greenberg exit. They would match that price which includes free shipping. They can even open you a line of credit if you want. If you haggle a bit, don't let them sipe the tires, don't get the warranty/road hazard, discard your old tires yourself, & maybe even tell them to use your old valve stems, you could probably talk them down to about $360 out the door.

I had those tires on my car before and they gripped like crazy. Amost as sticky as the stock Advans. Only 200 treadwear though so they only lasted about 15K miles.

Yeah if you have an inside deal I guess you should probably go with that. Just make sure if LS does price matching, tell them that price you have includes free shipping so they don't try to bump up the price another $20-$25 for fake shipping charges.
