Does anybody know of any cheap 38.5 inch tires? I cant really afford super swampers or anything else advertised in the magazines, but I need a decent mud tire. I was just wondering if anybody has ever seen any 38's about 15 or 16 inches wide for under $200 a piece. Thanks.

 

When you start to get into tire sizes like that, there are no Off-Brands. W/ 38's you basically have 2 choices-expensive and more expensive. You can get a 38X12.50 TSL for under 200 a pop but you'll never find a 14-16"wide 38 for that.
A 16X38.5x15 TSL runs about $225 at National Tire and Wheel, but you have shipping on top of that if your not close enough to get them yourself. Sorry Bub, but you may have to look at something smaller if you want to stay in that price range.

check to see if you can still find a tire called a grand prix,i have seen some 36s so they might make a 38.....also call up the big company's......one of them sells a tire called a on off-road RVT...never ridden on any but they look like gumbo or buckshot mudder.......if they wont work out,look in your local trading post
