I look for something that is still very solid on the street since you are still 2wd and paying through the nose for BFGs when you are only going to see mild off road conditions is way overkill. Toyos are a bit more price friendly like the Nittos which they are closely related.

I think you might try the Yokoham AT-S which is a very good on-road tire but isn't too tame to handle an occasional trip in the rough stuff.

When I went up an inch to the 265/75 TGs I noticed a very slight reduction in acceleration and a 1mpg drop and your speedo under 50mph will still read pretty accurate but as your speed increases up to 75 you'll be reading 3mph less than actual so the diff is not really an issue.
