A buddy of mine ran the clearance Hard Cityblocks from Amaine and did great with them in the summer time on a dusty packed surface. To keep cost down though it is a must to re-use wheels and foams, and also always be searching for the good deals on tires if you have time. I have never paid full price yet on truggy tires. Like I said just always be looking for the deals and it will be affordable.
