Tire Advice (Again...)

Ok guys....I know this path has been stepped on several times, but I need some advice. I am ready to buy new tires for my truck and here is what I am contemplating.

These are what I have found at a reasonable price. My goal is to find a quiet set of tires that will last at least 30-40k.

GoodYear AT/S $154ea (E Rated)
Michelin LTX M/S $166ea (E Rated)
Pirelli Scorpion S/T $155ea (E Rated)
Pathfinder ATR A/S $150ea (E Rated)
BF Goodrich All Terrain TA KO $158 (D Rated)
Cooper Discover AT's $123 (E Rated)

I've heard that the BFG's are give off a lot of noise due to how aggressive the tread is, though I haven't heard anything good ro bad about the Pathfinders or Pirelli's. Does anybody have any reccomendations or opinions?

Thanks

Kev
