Tires NITTO or Goodyear
That said Nitto Ridge Grapplers are a good compromise. Considered a ‘Mud Terrain hybrid’ but have great street manners.
I daily Goodyear mtr tires. Recently drove a 700 mile trip on them. You will hear them, but they aren't that bad. They perform pretty well on road, about the same as the duratracs I had before.
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.
Goodyear Super Car 3 > RS4 if you’re looking at longevity and pace.
I put Goodyear Exhilarates on my 6 and they were awesome. Extremely good traction in the rain. Never really used them in winter weather, but they were phenomenal wet or dry.

Update.... I got the Goodyear Assurance ComfortDrives for the van after some research and discussion with Tire Rack. They have pretty much eliminated tire noise and sharp impacts, which is great.
Goodyear All-Terrain LTs with a silly big lift
Goodyears I noticed don't handle the Ph roads too well.
Love nittos on my other truck, but for the raptor theyre terrible, horrible in rain, loud, and heavy as a mf.
