Did you just say "locker" and "wont eat tires" in the same sentence as "cheap"?
Any locker, by nature, is going to cause additional wear on your tires. If you want zero additional wear, buy an ARB. But since you said cheap, go Aussie or Lockright. They are cheap, but have the ability to unlock when going around corners. Just remember, with cheap prices come cheap quality. I had a lockright in my 87 4Runner and the pins were damaged with allowed it to pop in and out of lock whenever it felt like it.
