2 highly rated but cheap tires I can choose from: Yokohama Avid Touring or BF Goodrich Traction T/A H.

Tirerack.com doesn't have the latter in stock at the moment, so if I went with them I'd get the Yokohamas so I wouldn't have to wait. ($46 tire + $20 installation)*4 + $30 shpping = $294

Sam's Club has the BF Goodrich tires (and not the Yokohamas), though they'd have to be special ordered and shipped to my nearest store. I am not currently a member. $59*4 + $35 membership = $271 (installation and lifetime rotation and stuff are free, right)?

What would YOU do? Does Sam's Club have some horrible tire installation reputation I should know about? It would be easier to find a Sam's Club for warranty work and rotations...
 
Buy a Road & Track or Car & Driver and find your tires in the back of the magazine. Take it to your local Discount Tire and make them price match it. They even order the tires for you and do not charge shipping. They'll do it, just be persistant.

I've done this several times and have saved hundreds of dollars. You might even be able to get more tire for your buck.
