Buying tires on-line, and then finding a shop to install them may be more expensive, then to just go to say Discount Tire, and get a complete installed tire package. At least with the online stores you at least know how much a tire is going to cost, and then wheel and deal the store.
The best deal for buying tires on line is IF you know someone who'll install for cheap.

I usually buy online. I've yet to find a cheaper deal in the brand tire I want locally mounted and balanced. My cousin owns a tire shop so I just take what I buy from Tire Rack to him and have them mounted and balanced which ususally runs about $30 for 4 tires. Depending where you are in the country you might get better deals locally. I've had people tell me some deals they get in California that I can't even come close to in Michigan.
