if duratracs are outta your price range, just stick to using your truck as a DD.

cause being a mudder, tires will be the least of your issues

Especially being a 2wd.

Gonna get stuck a lot more often. Gonna have to work the truck twice as hard, etc.

Unless its not a 2wd and I misread something.

Anytime you want to 'upgrade' a vehicle it's going to cost cash - specially when you want to go all out..or even sometime just to actually do things the 'right way'.
