i would guess that the Yokohoma Geolander AT and General Grabber AT2 will be the best deals price wise. They were both about $50 less a tire than my Pro Comps AT but i do 99% highway driving...

yea those treadwrights seem like a pretty good deal at $105 each.

BUT! yeah clist, just got myself 31" bighorns with plenty of tread for $120

Theyre was also a set of general grabbers for $100 but they didnt have as much tread as the bighorns

good luck!

mmm so are bfg mts, but they are expensive even used and most people that have them run them all the way.

the most important thing here i guess is, what is your budget?
