the prices are actually pretty cheap for mud tires, the cheapest mud tire I could find shipped was $480 thats not mounted or balanced etc. $55 per tire is pretty cheap. like I said $280 to my door. the bigger you go, the more you pay, and also make sure you are looking at the regular tires, the GD or Green Diamond are about $15 more per tire. Maybe thats where you saw the higher prices. Otherwise for the money, good luck, unless you go used.
