Ever watched Baja races? They are built for the desert and surpass all others. They do work in other conditions but towing isn't the #1 design goal
talk me out of BFG Ko's Need a winter rated offroader Must aggressive one I can find

the OP and 99% of tire buyers are not running baja races. there are much better tires on the market.
I had the Patagonia M/T on my off road toy, and will do the Patagonia XT or Patagonia AT Pro on my ZR2 next. Best off road tires I have used.
Yes but buying tires that aren't for your purpose isn't the tires fault.
With the criteria you've narrowed it to, I think you've basically limited yourself to KO2's, KO3's or the MICKEY THOMPSON BAJA BOSS A/T.
I have the KO2s on my truck and am glad to have them. Their only downfall is performance on wet roads (albeit in a RWD pickup any tire would struggle). Great performance in mud, snow, trails, rocks, etc here in Michigan. Quiet on the road as well.

Nope, 7/16" on the front tires,a bit more on the rears,need to have them rotated soon. I am actually Very pleased with how they are holding up on this fairly heavy truck.

In May of 2019, I purchased a 1998 Mitsubishi Montero Winter Package. I knew I wanted the Montero to be a vehicle that would allow me to tackle many miles of on-road driving, help progress my driving skills off-road, and allow me to conquer my goals of international travel. As I looked to outfit...

I have had several sets of KO2's, I think one thing some do that causes the wet performance to be less than stellar is running the tire pressure too high. Often, people will increase tire size, and when doing so don't take into consideration the need to decrease pressure as tire size increases to maintain contact patch. I think they are one of the best all around tires, I have run them on Jeeps from MO, to Moab, to Colorado trails. On F150's and 4Runners. Not one tire will perform the best in all conditions, there are all compromises. Kept in the right pressure range, for the weight of the vehicle and size of tire, they are pretty dang good.
I liked my KO2’s, except if someone spit on the road then they’d lose all traction… a truck shouldn’t be able to spin all 4 wheels at half throttle.
