Looks like the original Gateway Buckshot Mudders are not being made anymore. They don't list them on Gateway's website. One would have to be leary anyways about a tire company that's predominantly making golf cart tires.
Here's a supplier but it looks like they only have 36's left in stock:

From the reports I've read about these tires they seem to be monsters offroad but most people have recommended the Maxxis Bighorns as a good, cheap alternative:

But these people may have been confusing the Maxxis Buckshot Mudders with the Gateway Buckshots which are far different. I guess it all depends on how much on road/off road driving you'll be doing. There are a lot of tires to choose from most of which give you the same off road performance but differ tremendously on road and wear rate on pavement.
Good luck man!!!

Re: Any one know where i can find these tires?
They probably have good tread life because they are a bias ply tire; they tend to use harder rubber compounds in those tires.
They may have awesome tread life, but a bias ply tire isn't the friendliest for a daily driver; what you gain in tread life, you will give up in ride quality.

I personnaly run the destination MT and i am very impressed by the tread life up to now.
One last thing... remanufactured tires.... I have been looking into this alot and if they would do the size I was looking for for next year, I would do it no hesitation. Alot of good review for this company : http://www.treadwright.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
The price is just sweet and they make some in the dimension you're looking for :
235 : http://www.treadwright.com/shopnow/prod ... -mt-e.aspx" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
265 : http://www.treadwright.com/shopnow/enti ... 75R16.aspx" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Threadwright is in the us, but there is also one company that might have one model you would like that is in quebec:
http://pneuecolo.com/en/techno_tires_c.php" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; look the last one in the truck section. The Xcavator...
I'm sure you can find remanufactured tires company in ontario...it's worth a look....$$
