How much were they? I've been getting by with take-offs that I buy thru Craigslist. Original Generals run 40,000 miles. Used the rims to mount studded snow tires ($900) six years ago. My first set of take-offs cost me $150 (paid $750 for 6 tires, rims and simulators, sold rims and simulators for $600 when I wore them out) and run 30,000 miles, paid $700 for the next set of 7 Michelins (2 new, 4 chipped up from gravel roads, one GY unused spare) rims and simulators, sold one rim for $60, just now wearing 3 of those chipped up tires out. I bought 2 used Michelins ($100) to run this summer replacing the two worst ones. I just bought a set of 6 Generals for $300 (half tread), should last me another two years....so, with 132,000 miles it has cost me $2090 in rubber, and should be good to go until 190,000 or more. This is on a 2004 Dodge dually that pulls a loaded 14k trailer (20-24k gross) 90% of the time...Never have had a bad tire in the bunch.

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
