For reference on SoCal prices, mine are 235/80/16 and the $1212 includes $150 worth of certificates for replacement if the tire is damaged beyond repair for any reason (sidewall punctures, blowouts, etc.). I purchased the same tires from the same dealer almost exactly 5 years ago for $149/ea. They are now $223/ea.

Not sure if it makes a difference, but my tires are 205/75/14.
Anyway, I have just finished getting quotes from 4 or 5 tire dealers here in the greater Vancouver area, and the most expensive was approximately $1200 (Fountain Tire), while the others were a couple bucks either side of $1000 (OkTire, KalTire etc), with the cheapest, I just ordered from, was a local small auto shop which I have been a customer of for the last ten or so years, at just over $900. All these prices include tax, all fees, and included installation.
Maybe the tire size is the difference, but I'm surprised they are that expensive up there.

ya that will probably make a huge difference.

I bought 4 Endurance 205 75R14 two weeks ago. $642.00 out the door, mounted, balanced, and with new metal HP stems. Date code 7-23 which made them about 2 months or so old. I did not request the date when I ordered them as the tire guy would of probably looked at me like some kind of anal busybody if I had done so, and probably have told me to take a hike..

They sell a lot of them as that is why the date codes are so new. Nine were very new in 2017.

I wouldn't recommend it, but I put a new set of Firestone HT's on our new fiver in 2006 and didn't change them out until 2018. We had just arrived and got set up when I noticed a nail in one of the tires and took the tire to a shop for repair. When they removed the tire from the wheel, a chunk of the tire broke off along the inside bead. Manager came out and looked at the date on the tire and couldn't believe it. We replaced all four that day! Fiver is stored inside unless in use and tires had minimal wear and still looked good. Not advocating anything here, just sharing my "dumb luck" story. I would like to think I'm a little older and wiser now.
