The Jubitz Truck Stop in Portland, Or., generally have good prices on Michelins.
Jubitz is located off I-5 at exit 307. No sales tax in Oregon.

Look for a Les Schwab tire center. They usually stock (or can get within 24 hours) the truck-size tires. Prices are generally good for fresh tires. (Watch out for sale prices -- some tire stores (not necessarily Schwab) will sell really old tires at big discounts.) Service is very good. Indeed, when I had a flat (due to a bad schrader valve), a Les Schwab store had 2 or 3 employees working on my coach and the tire for nearly 2 hours. (They were a little inexperienced with working on a motor home, though they were experienced with large trucks.) When finished -- no charge. Flats are fixed for free.
