^^^ Pretty much that, just dig around and find who has the tire & price you want.
I've bought tires from Tire Rack, Onlinetires.com, my local Discount Tire retail stores, and Manny, Moe and Jack.
Discount Tire Direct had a blowout sale on MPSS last Black Friday $125 a piece and free shipping that I bought for my car.
Pep Boys has a Falken ZIEX ZE950 245/45-19 on sale I put in the wife's 14' GT. Those were $780 installed with their road hazard replacement. I'm happy with that tire so far.
I caught Michelin Pilot Sport A/S3's on clearance several times (265/xxR19) (285/35r19) for $108 and $118 respectively. I bought eight 285's for the rear and two 265's for the front. Still waiting to put the 265's on and have already used 4 of the 285's. Still have 4 in the shop. I'm set on tires for the next 5-7 years.
