Default Which Tire Brand

I have a 2001 Dodge Cummins and I was wondering which tires would be the best for me. I do a lot of hauling on rock roads and my old tires just got chewed up. I want a little traction on them for the mud but not to much and my limit is around 220 dollars per tires what tires are best for me. I want 285-75-16

I have 285/75/r16 Toyo Open Country A/T... have 72k miles on em, and if it wasn't for my recent front end troubles, they'd be good for another 10k, ATLEAST... but I am just letting them wear down because I want 305's (I have 4.10 gears) but these tires are great in all conditions, and I've done everything with em. I will definatly buy the same tire in 305.

i will add a third vote for toyo oc A/Ts we run the hell out of them on almost every truck we own. also from my experiance toyos stand up to white rock roads pretty good compared to anything else i have run.
