Angry Cant find my tire

I am looking for a 38 inch tire thats on a 17 or 18 inch rim with 13 or more inches wide. But im not looking to spend more then $310 preferably 300 tops. I found Toyo M/T 37x13.5R17 for $280 and a 38x14.5R16 for $270...but cant find what i want.

Well that narrows it down a lot. You would want a radial tire that will get somewhat descent wear, have a lot of traction, and not cost too much. I will find you what you're looking for. Well, i'll try my best anyway.

Ok, Nitto makes a Mud Grappler in a 37x13.50 for an 18 inch rim for $309. They also make a 38x15.50 for an 18 inch rim for $330. That is what i can think of off the top of my head because those are the tires i am buying. I will keep looking though, let me know what you think.

Thanks Rocket! Ye i was thinking Nitto Mud Grapplers or Toyo M/T's. I was gun go with Iroks but they only come as 37 and 39.5's. where did you find the Nitto 38's for $330? And if you wouldnt mind helping me a little more, see if you could find the same size tire (38x15.5 R17 or 18) in the Toyo M/T.

Ok, the Toyos are going to run you around $400 each in that size. I have no idea why they are so much more than the Mud Grapplers. The Mud Grapplers are great tires. I am going to purchase a set myself, so i have been doing my homework on them. You can get the 38x15.50R18 for $330 at:

Best part is, they'll give you free shipping there too! If you need anything else, just let me know!
