There is a UPS alternative, which I've done a couple of times, and for something of that value it might be worth doing.
Have the Tirerack send it UPS, but have it sent "hold for pickup" at their Porter Road location in Niagara Falls, New York. Drive down there and pick it up (10 minutes from the border at Lewiston) and then bring them back across the border yourself.
You'll save on cheaper "inside U.S." shipping charges and you won't pay brokerage fees. Balance that against your time and the cost of gas and it might be worth it.
