Default Road noise

My 2018 JKU Willy痴 came with bf goorich all terrain lt 255/75 R17 stock. They seem to have some excessive road noise. Anyone else notice this?

This is is my first Jeep (and I値l own one forever) and I知 not sure if I知 just spoiled by car tires. Are all-terrain tires usually this noisy on the road?

All-terrain and mud-terrain tires are louder than most car tires. Also, the Jeep is louder than most cars, so you will hear more wind and road noise.

Turns out that I had a weird uneven wear on my two front tires due to an alignment issue. I had them rotated and flipped so the loud thumping noise is now more of a dull thud. Buying new tires is not an option right now.
