Good cheap mud tire for 16 inch rim?

What is a good cheap mud tire for a 16 inch rim. I should stress cheap, not the best. I don't plan on driving in the rain, or even on the road very much. They are going on a farm truck, BUT I do need to tow the occasional goose neck so they need to be strong enough. Something like a 33 or 34 inch tire.

Thanks
Joe

That's what I got on my '86. I don't believe they were so cheap compared to the regular swampers. I haven't got 'em stuck yet...ALMOST.... but not yet. they're 8 ply too in that size.

The 33" dunlop mudders on my burb are at sam's club for about $135. Have you thought about retreads? hi-tec retreads advertises in 4wd magazines. i thought about getting 37" mud radials for the chevy truck I had with shipping only $600.

Thanks, re-treads are probably right in my price range and will do what I need.
