Nitto terra grapplers , Michelin LTX A/T2, Dueler a/t r, or Toyo open country?

Nitto terra grapplers, Michelin LTX A/T2, Dueler a/t Revo, or Toyo open country?

Looking for some 265/75/R16's. I’m having a hard time choosing. I drive 2500 Miles per month. 90% on pavement. Looking for a long lasting tire with a comfy and quiet ride, with mild to moderate off road capabilities. The options listed above seem to be top picks on this site. Any suggestions biased on my needs?
Thanks!

Im really fond of the Nitto Terra Grapplers. 40,000 miles+ depending how hard I am on them, and great off road.

Toyo and Nitto are made by the same company. Terra Grapplers and Open Country A/Ts are the same tire. The Nittos are significantly cheaper.

Don't know a thing about the Michelin other than I don't hear about them on the offroad forums.

Michelins are a great long wearing on road tire, but you pay for them. The Revo's on my last truck (00 Taco) were a pain in the butt trying to keep them rotated fast enough so they wore even. They liked to chop real bad. A friend of mine has toyos on his 05 double cab and they have worn great.
