So i have my drive train almost set and just need a new front pulley. I am asking what you guys recommend for tires.
I currently got 20x10-8 in the rear with chains. and 15x6 in the front.

Idealy im looking for fair price options and could go up a inch or two in the rear because my chains are a bit big.

I like cheap knobby tires. The small lugs ride really well compared to a v-tread or similar with long lugs that don't flex. Just get the cheapest 2 ply knobbies you can find in 22 inches tall and run them at a lower pressure. Should ride really well and go through most terrains you would encounter with a go anywhere rig. For the front, see if you can pick up some 8 inch front rims from a lighter duty garden tractor that has 5/8 inch spindles. They should slide right on. Mine came from a Sabre (made by John Deere), and my knobbies I got off Walmart.com shipped to my local Walmart and installed for 40 bucks each total.
