This is the right time to buy tires. Many of the shops are clearing out their left overs rather than hold them all winter. Get a set and store them to next spring and have them changed once you get the bike out on the road.
Store them in a cool place sealed in dark garbage bags.
I'd look around and then if the shop where your bike is isn't the low price or near enough to it then get 'em elsewhere. With all winter to work on it you could likely arrange for a cheaper installation price to boot. Talk with them. Winter is all about just keeping the shop working and labour discounts are often possible. Don't expect give away prices but you can expect to save a few bucks at least.
