My goal is to just always look in lbs's wherever I happen to be. Invaribably you will find good tires sitting on a closeout table somewhere. For example, a few weeks ago I was in Columbia MO, and got a set of Conti grand prix 3000s for 50 dollars. It was my understanding from talking to the shop that they were getting rid of them because they were yellow and nobody wanted yellow.

I think that if you keep your eye open and don't get set on a particular model you will get good values on tires. (unfortunately your bike might end up rocking some ugly black and yellow theme)
