What do you consider cheap or a good deal? I have the BFG All terrains in the same exact size and they cost me $900 for set of 4 without mounting or balancing (I have a friend who does that for free). These are the only brand of tires I will go with as I get the most mileage out of them, with proper rotation of course. I do like the Nittos and other mudders that are out there, but I guarantee I'll get the most miles out of the BFGs compared to the others

That is a stock Hummer H2 tire. Look for someone who upgraded to 26" rims and turned their H2 to Ghetto Fab.

I found a set on eBay and a set on Craigslist. They were both used, but had plenty of tread on them. Last set had 10/32nds for $225.

^ You should get them, they are great tires. Mine are 10 ply, they ride great, and wear even better as long as you keep them rotated.

From what i've heard kelly tsr's (think they're called) appear to be good tire and they're cheap. Also the kumho kl78's are cheap. I had a set of those, they're a good tire. Look good! 315/70r17. http://ssl.delti.com/cgi-bin/rshop.p...&nichtweiter=1
Also i have 2 hankook dynapro AT tires with 7/2nds tread left. 50ucks + shipping if you wanna go that route Then get ya couple new ones. Just an idea. New they are 16/32.
