Brand VS non brand tires

Hi,
are there big differences between brand and non brand tires?
I got a quote for about $60 a new tire from this guy, and although have not seen the goods want to know if anyone can tell me anything on the subject, as these gotta be some non brand ones from what i hear...
i want to get some decent all season tires but I'm a bit on a budget.

anyone?

thanks a bunch.

Re: Brand VS non brand tires

you get what you pay for. on that note, go with a nice BFG A/T 30x9.50 KO and call it a day. they might run you $105 each, but worth every penny. my brother has tried running cheaper tires on his Jeep in the past, only to end up with a flat on the trail.

I have the Liberator A/T, and the are a pretty agressive tire, with mid/low highway moan.

I paid right around $60 for mine (I'm not possitive but I think they were $68 each).

MX - Did you fit those tires on your stock wheels? if not which wheels do you have?

sorry, but that's like putting Nankang's on a Porsche, just doesn't happen. I don't run cheap tires on any of my cars, but each to his own.

yes, I had 30x9.50 15's on my stock 15in wheels when I first bought my Jeep.
