Tire dealers in BC, Washington state or Oregon.

I've been pricing out tires locally for my Class C 21QB, but in a few weeks I will be doing a trip through the Fraser Valley into the US, so I was wondering if anybody could suggest good (as in good deals) tire shops in BC or the Pacific Northwest? I'm not too brand specific, but would prefer to stick with reputable products like Michelin, Firestone, Cooper, etc.

Thanks for all suggestions.

    I would check Costco. They get 'second's, perfectly good tires that have a cosmetic blemish. Because of he size, rv tires tend to be quite pricey. You might do a little better south of the border but with duty and our devalued dollar you might be as well off buying at home.


    Duty???? I know if I was traveling in Canada and had to buy a new tire I wouldn't bother listing it or declaring it to US Customs. It's just part of keeping the vehicle running, like gas. Now if they check as see a big Canadian Tire sticker pasted to my tires I'd just tell them, yeah I was forced to replace the tires. And then I ask Do I have to declare everything I bought to keep it on the road, like gas too?

  • Have you thought about buying on EBAY, Tire Rack or Tirebuyer and having them held for Pick up on U.S. side? You can get them mounted and balanced at any good tire dealer. Tire Buyer is my online favorite.
    As for tire stores I have no knowledge of the area you will be in But my go to store is usually BIG "O" tire and so far I have had good luck with them on price ad service wherever I am. This also gives me somewhere to go in a different city should I have a problem
