Duratracs hands down. The KO2’s are a good tire, but wear out almost twice as fast as the Duratracs. They forced us to KO2’s at work, and we are lucky to get 60K outta a set(2 rotations per year etc) while my last set of Duratracs got 95K with still 4/32 tread left, when the swap happened.
Just make sure you buy the hi ply rated Duratracs.

That is not hard to do over 30 yrs, on about 5 different trucks and approx. 1,000,000 kms driven. My last truck 10 yrs old, had 360,000 km's and 6 sets of tires alone.

I have cooper discoverers on my truck and have been happy with them. For a 35" tire I'm actually impressed with the tread life

I like the Duratracs, on my 3rd set between work and personal vehicles.

I tried a Muteki knock off version once and that was a mistake. I think they are sold as "Centennial Trail Hogs" now. Don't buy these.

The Duratracs will last a long time, I have 90,000 on my half to with them and they still have a lot of meat left although I might switch them out early this time as they really suffer in the winter once they get some wear.

I have a set of these in 295-55-R20 on a f150 and they have lasted 150k. The last 50k not a winter tire but summer is fine. I will use them next summer no trouble.

Another good mud tire for gravel is Hankook dynapro MT. Duratracs are better on ice but I can’t get many miles on them on my trucks that drive a lot of gravel.
