Default Cheap mud tire

looking for cheap mud tires my preferred size is a 285 70r17 or a 75r17 to a 33x12.50 I've stumbled across some that I like but I just want some other opinions out there. Also I'd prefer an "Atturo trail blade mt" style tread pattern

Check out the federal MT's great tires for the money. Tread pattern is different but growing on me

I have heard good things about Arturo's for being Chinese made by federal.

I also agree with the Federal Couragias. I have had them in mud, sand, and rock and they perform great!

If you want cheap search craigslist or outdoor sites for used tires from people swapping tires or wheels. You can find great tires for $400 for all with little use.

Here you go
mud tires, 285/70/17 mastercraft mxt
5000 miles claimed
on lariat rims, 2002
$700

probably get them for a bit less

Honestly, the edges look rounded to me for 5000 miles, the depth looks shallow for mud tires, and not even across tread, but its hard to tell.
At 5000 miles, my tires look like new with all the little injection vent thingys sticking off all over.
