Default inexpensive yet dependable mud tire

What is a good inexpensive mud tire that would last me for a while?

I was looking at the dunlop mud rovers, maxxis bighorns, and maxxis buckshots.

Who has experience with these and do you know of any other good tires that I didn't mention...

The Dunlop Mud Rover is probably a good choice.

I'm getting 5 BFG Mud Terrain KMs tomorrow for $111 each. (the Rubicon tire)

I hope they're everything the reviews say they are. I'm thinking flip-flops would do better on wet roads than Goodyears. (although they served me well in my first sand adventure)

The Hankook Dyna Pro M/T are inexpensive and are a great tire. I paid $160 for a 35" tire.

Best value out there. I just priced some for a friend of mine with a TJ- 35x12.50-15 for $152 each. That included mounting and balancing.

This is the tire I'm going to with and I've been shopping around on the net, Where did you guys get yours from and how much was shipping?

I did the same - I went from the goodyears to the KMs....you can go down the interstate in a downpour at 75 thru deep water and not even feel it. I love em. Of course, I dont have to mention the off road capabilities
