What towing tires have you upgraded to for better off road traction?

I am looking for something with a little better off road traction. My 2019 SRW Dodge 3500 4x4 currently has Firestone Transforce HT. Looks like I will get about 35K miles on them but they are horrible on wet grass. Luckly, I have 4x4!
I would like to hear actual towing experience, off road maybe 10%. Not heavy trails or anything, just something that will help in wet grass, sand, mud.

Thanks!
Trent

I am pondering the same thing right now. I am thinking about the Continental TerrainContact A/T as my top choice.

Thanks, currently in my running are the ones below. I keep leaning towards the Ridge Grapplers.

There are SO many tires and I hate to put something on that I am going to hate for two or three years.... ;-)

Running Goodyear DuraTracs on my Ram. Just hit about 20k miles on them. Still look good.

Yes that's what I will put on when my Michelin have about 30k.

I had Geolandar X-ATs on my Ram 3500 and really like them. However, when diesel prices skyrocketed, I went back to stock size to try to get back some of the mileage I lost from the 35" tires. Road noise was not bad at all, good traction, e load rated, but they were large (35x12.5.17) and really too big for the stock 6.5" rims. The dealer put them on, and I would have left them on there if not for towing so heavy.
