Optimal tires for my SR5?

Only had this 2023 SR5 3.5 2WD for a week, and the drone from the Wrangler Duratracs it came with is getting to me.

I don't go offroad ... my main use will be around town/highway and occasionally towing and launching a little bass boat. (2300 lbs for boat, motor, and trailer).

I'd like some tires that are quiet and long lasting on the highway but will have good grip on wet surfaces for the occasional wet road or slippery boat ramp.

Kinda looking at the Yokohama Geolandar H/Ts. But some reviews indicated poor wet traction on those. Would prefer tires in the range of two bills each or less.

Any suggestions from experience? I'd like to keep the same tire size -- 265/70R16.

New-to-me Tacoma

Just picked up a 2023 SR5 V6 Double Cab 2WD ... my first Toyota truck since 2010, when I traded my '05 Tundra for an Outback. I needed something reliable I could use to tow a small bass boat (2300 lb total).

Someone obviously loved this truck, though I think he or she really wanted a 4x4 ... it's sort of kitted out as a faux by four with 265/R70/16 Wrangler Duratrac tires, some shin-killing Predator steps, and a Teton Workshop shift knob. Only has 31,000 miles. It must be one of the last '23s ... made in 10/23 and delivered 12/23.

I like it! Took me a bit to get used to the feel of a truck suspension again. Seems like it has plenty of capability and power for my needs, and it fits in the garage.
