Toyo M55s ordered from Discount Tire. Commercial grade traction tire.
You'll save 25% over buying them at Les Schwab.

Coopers, or just buy some used tires for $50 each. Did that for many years while I was poorer than I am now.

Retreads. Back when I was a poster child for the poor, I bought an entire set of retreads, complete with bubble balancing, for $50. That would be the same year I had two flat tires on opening day of hunting season. Do they even make retreads for light trucks and autos these days?
huntncoug, What size are you looking for? Lots of used tires on craigslist. Whole sets including some with rims, too.

Check your local tire dealers for new vehicle take offs.If they do any business with new car dealers they should have some available.It all depends of the size of tire your looking for.It will save you about 50% on tires with less than 50 miles on them.

Just put some new Bridgestone AT Revo's on my F150, not cheap (800.00) but I really like them. YMMV

I can't afford Les Schwab anymore Between studded tires last fall, and tires yesterday for my youngest son's B3000 truck. I'm wishing I had some LS stock. I may have to take up Salmon/Steelhead guiding part time to get moneyed back up. Mf

Sure, that'll work, we all know that guiding is a great way to make tons of money!!
You know how to make a small fortune guiding? Start with a large fortune.

I just put a set of Coopers Discovery AT on my 3/4 GMC. They were less than 200 bucks a tire.

I have been running Cooper Discoverer STT's for a while now, and they rock. Cooper = big thumbs up.
