After mutch debating I've decided to go with the AT2 as they are inside my budget, highly reccomended, and great on the Street. Just my question is am I getting a good deal here?
-> 4 NEW 265/70-17 GENERAL GRABBER AT2 70R R17 TIRES | eBay

Tire Rack has the same tire for 148
General Grabber AT 2 Don't say I should get a mud tire cause I really really want to get mud tires, but I can't afford them.

Then whats the difference?
General GRABBER AT2 265/70 R17 115S studdable, OWL - tires-easy.com

General GRABBER AT2 265/70 R17 115S OWL - tires-easy.com

I'm totally new to this tire shopping thing.

Don't bother answering the Whats the Difference. It more than Ebay.

I really need to know so I can order the Tires this week. And is this even a tire I should consider? I'm done hours of reading reveiws on this tire and everyone loves it. Kinda like Treadwright, lotta loversd and like no haters. Another thing Treadwright is not on the list.

What are you looking to use the tires for really? Are you actually going to off road with them or just your everyday driving? I know my parents yukon has huge goodyear tires on and they are great!! Licks the snow clean in the MI winters we get lol

I plan on doing both. Thats why a MT is out of the question. I've read that they are great in snow and rain. I bumped into a guy at the gas station with a lifted jeep and we got talking. He asked me what tires I'm going to get, I said AT2. He told me that they are a really good tire, and better than the BFG A/t. It souned like he had them on his jeep at one point.

Caleb, I think you can see from the reviews they are a good tire.
The tread pattern is similar to the BFG AT and the Treadwright Warden, it is a proven pattern that is on many 4X4's today.
I expect it will work just great for you and you have already made up your mind so go get them!

FWIW, Discount's prices are "shipped" and Tire Rack's prices are pre-shipping... Discount matches the "shipped" price, so make sure you partially check out at TR and get the shipping number for Discount.
