An excellent choice is Maxxis Trepador 8060.
I run with 235/75/15. They are 1st generation tyres, very light (for mud tyres), very good on street( they have rotation, not like bf goodrich as they are very slippy- at least here in Greece) costs me 380euro on January(about 480$)

I was looking into Kuhmo MTs and Dunlop Mud Rovers, both of which are around 90 bucks a tire for 235/75/R15s on TireRack.

i know this is going to sound really weird to all.....
but i bought a set of tires from www.high-tec-retreading.com......have about 6,000 miles and no wear showing on them at all, these things are wearing like iron!! i've had them since october, and run them thru their paces.....conquered mud, ice, snow all real well....the other cool thing about them is they dont need to be balanced at all, because of the way their made they are perfectly balanced, unlike a brand new tire....best of all mine were $260 shipped to my house....i opted for the most aggressive tire, the OTR MUD 235/75/15.....this is a daily driver as well

great to hear that you are trying out the retreads....remember to take your wheel weights off once ya get them mounted....and DONT balance them.......i also wondered about the green diamond tires, but they were more money.....i paid $250 for the whole tracker, i didnt wanna pay a ton more for my tires than the whole damn trucklet...so i went the cheapest way out....by the way...i've noticed that the tires seem to need a crotch hair more air than normal tires....i run mine at 26psi, and she still rides like a hillbilly cadillac!
