Tires NITTO or GISLAVED
I have the Ridge Grapplers on my truck and love them. They ride smooth on the road and really aren't that noisy at all. I was pleasently surprised with how nice they are.
I’ve had both. Liked the grapplers better and run them currently. They perform better in the rain. That’s pretty much the only difference I was able to notice
That said Nitto Ridge Grapplers are a good compromise. Considered a ‘Mud Terrain hybrid’ but have great street manners.
Nitto Ridge Grapplers are a pretty good middle ground. Aggressive and capable tread pattern with sidewall lugs for offroading, but softer and quieter than full on M/T.

I have a set of these, 6 years. Never a single issue. They are a little harder but nothing like what you would expect from the comments.
I’m replacing them tomorrow with a new set 6 years to the day from when I 1st put them on.
They are amazing tires. Hands down the best I have ever owned in 30 years of driving.
Nitto tires use a lot of the same tech as Toyo (who owns them) so you are just seeing a decent AT truck tire wearing like it should. All the no grip comments are funny this is a truck tire not a sport tire. Nitto has a winter line as well that is great and very inexpensive.
I had NeoGens on a G35 Coupe and liked them ok. Continentals are better IMO.
They are nitto neo gen they supposedly say these are great for wet surfaces but the other day my car slid from a small turn going slow.
Have ridge grapplers on my work truck and I don’t like them. There isn’t a lot of sipping grooves so they aren’t great in anything sloppy like wet snow or mud
