A-n-T Tire (pretty much anything you want to order), Discount Tire, America's Tire, Sears.

Depends upon what you want and how much you want to pay. One advantage to Les Schwab is that most of them have the Hunter system, which is pretty much required for them to work on alloy rims.

I just recently purhased a set of Potenza's RE960s. I found the prices for Costco and LeSchwabs too high. Tirerack seems to have the best price, but when you factor in shipping and install (local shop) it tends up being the same. Best is to see who has it in stock and get it from them. I got mine set from Discount tires. 18s are expensive to all-season rubber around..
