I got mine from Amazon. No tax and free shipping. Even after paying Discount to mount and balance them I saved $400 over the lowest quote I got locally.

Look for small tire dealers. They are all over the place. I got two sets from different dealers for different trucks. I got a set of 285/70 17 and a computerized alignment for 680. Yea Chinese tires but they are pretty good AT tires.

I've bought 2 sets of new truck take-off wheels and tires on Craigs List.
Both sets were in good condition. Price was much less than new.
When they wear down close to tread indicators, I sell them.

I have had luck with multiple cars buying newer model factory take offs and then selling mine. Cheaper tires and new rims at the same time. Here is an example I was already looking at for my car here in Dallas: http://dallas.craigslist.org/mdf/wto/5710735729.html

Hard to tell but they don't look like 80% tread left.

I've always thought discounttiredirect.com has pretty good prices.
