For me it would be the Michelin LTX/MS. It does not look rugged at all, but it has great traction in anything but mud. I never go in mud so it's perfect for me. It is incredibly smooth and quiet riding, tracks very well, and has low rolling resistance. Also, it is notorious for wearing very long. I am not too worried about durability because it is still LT rated and in the 31 or 32 inch sizes it's got a plenty high load rating for my light weight regular cab.

You can go 31 or 32 inchs but they don't "feel" that big at all. They have excellent rolling resistance. I have regeard to 4.56 and my mileage has stayed exactly the same as with p225s and 4.10s. I tried the BFG TAs years ago in a p235 and hated how rough and crude they felt.
