Cheap isn't always the best way to go. Before you know it you will end up getting new tires. I always go with a mid grade tire and good valve stems

you buy a cheap tire your gonna be replacing them every 10,000 miles invest in a set of Buckshot Maxis Mudders they are about 100 to 120 bucks a piece but they will last you a good 30 to 40 thousand miles if you rotate them every time u change your oil

well then if you ask me go to a local tire shop and just buy an off brand tire that has a name brand tread pattern talk to the guy up there he should be more help cause then you can get actual prices they can always order stuff in for you but i'm really partial to the buckshots because they dig like a durango but sound like a hankook going down the road plus the 40,000 miles you can get out of them is nice most mud tires wear out like crazy

Personally, I love the BF Goodrich AT/KO's and I always will. They are great off road and they clean themselves very well. They are also pretty quiet on road and they drive really nice also. In the thick heavy mud though, they suck!! they fill up the grooves very fast and you might as well be driving with slicks. In the wetter mud they are good. I would still recomend them to anyone. Thats what I run and they are right up there in price with all the others. well, right in the middle price range I guess. well worth it though, If you ask me.
