What do you have on the front? Did you mean to put the dash in the 130/70-17? That indicates a bias belt tyre which can limit options.

If price is everything, you could go for a part worn?

Cheapest new ones are probably the vee rubber ones. Actually not terrible but tyres aren't the place to save money.

Have you tried going into a tyre shop and seeing what they can get you?

I've bought Maxxis in the past - Ok for me. Made in Czech (I think).

They'll be a bit on the tall side as they are generally 90 section. You could probably drop a width and stretch it out more. A 3.50 17 would probably be somewhere close. It would fit the rim in any case.

What's the difference between getting a used wheel and tyre together but not a used tyre on its own?

Often even cheaper to buy wheel and tyre oddly enough.
