Question What Tires???

okay heres the deal..

I need new tires on my Ranger but I'm trying to sell it so I don't want to spend too much (but I'll drive to work on them in the mean time - lots of driving)
so here are two brand and models I'm looking at

BTW Ranger is 2.3L 4x2 reg cab shrt bed w/ 4.10 rear (and I drive hard)

Choices:
Dunlop SP Sport 5000 BLK $101.00ea
P225 60ZR-15
(Nice tread and ride but not sure I want to spend this much for tires if I'm gonna sell)

BF Goodrich Radial T/A $56.00ea
P205 60SR-15

(Not sure on these are they 2 or 4 ply? how do they ride? more in my willing to spend price range)

Opinions and welcome and appreciated

I have a 4x4 with mud terrains on it, so I can't really reply to which is better. If you are planning on selling it real soon, maybe just go with the cheap ones? Just keep in mind that the tires are the only thing that keep a vehicle on the road. Hopefully someone else will put in their word...
