If you have a Discount tire near you, check out this tire. Not saying it is the BEST traction tire out there, but so far in 20K+ miles, wearing well. Great in dry and rain wetted roads. 60K wear out warranty. One of the more reasonably priced tires. I would suggest aftermarket siping them. While not squirmy initially, as I am getting to the half way mark, the initial factory sipes are a bit thin.
They do well towing my upwards of 9K equipment trailer. Loads of topsoil, rock to 3 tons in the bed have not been an issue. I have used in snow, chains are needed if on the nastier side of things. At least with my open diff RWD truck they are needed......
I have seen one report on trucktire.com or some equal website that gives initial reviews of the tire. My findings are real similar to that review.
A different recommendation on a tire probably not heard about too much. May work if it comes in your tire size. For me, it was $125 per tire plus tax, balancing etc. vs most other 245-75-16 tires were in the 150-175 relm. higher all steel cased tires like a Toyo M55 equal were closer to $200. Which I also like, but that is a true traction tire!
