I have a 2020 Outback that I drive to launches. It's due for new tires and I'm having trouble deciding which kind to put on. 99% of the driving I do is on pavement, but I don't want to find myself off pavement and not being able to move when I need to (e.g. sand traps during desert rocket recovery.) That makes all-terrain tires seem like the natural choice, but I'm concerned about decreased fuel economy, louder road noise, and quicker tread wear. I've read that manufacturers have made improvements in those areas, but I'm curious what the collective hive mind has to say from real-world experience.
Alternatively, is there any sort of in-between tire that's considered all-season, but known to have decent performance off-road? I'm not very car-savvy and new to the [light] off-roading scene.
