I am a cheap SOB, so I keep an eye on sales and will buy a cheap set of tires before I over-spend.
Right now, the Jumbo Jims are my first choice. Because I put my bike through forest scrub and rocky terrain, I want something more flat resistant.

What say you?

Tell us more about your riding conditions, fat bike tires are a complex world... lots of choices for lots of different conditions.
