FWIW I have 235 tires on my van, Toyo M55. I'm about to put on my 3rd set of those tires (i get about 60,000 miles out of the rears).

The tires have excellent snow and mud traction. Main downsides is they weigh a lot so they can be hard to balance, and they cost about twice as much as most highway tread tires.
