Let's just say I didn't have to line up at the counter at the border. I wasn't asked what I did in the States, only when I left, and if I was bringing back anything.

I thought that if the tire as the DOT stamp on it you dont pay any import fees on em ! Am I wrong to think this or does your tires not have the DOT on it?

No import fee as in no tariff, that's true. That doesn't mean however that it's tax free: GST and PST still apply.

This is the shop (a "recommended installer" listed on Tire Rack's website) I used:

GOODYEAR AUTO SVC CTR 046
1280 NIAGARA FALLS BLVD
TONAWANDA, NY 14150
(716) 837-8720

More information about the shop can be found here.

I shipped the tires using their "Fedex 3-day Express Saver", so it took 4 days from the day I ordered to the day the tires arrived at the shop. I'd imagine you can have other stuff shipped together with your tires to the shop, but I would call the shop ahead of time to confirm first.
