Anything smaller than 35's are going to look small. For an A/T, I'd go with Falken wild peaks...

I think the Goodyear Duratracs are pretty nice. Seems to me they have a nice balance of good on and off road performance.

Anything less than 35" will look small with 4" of lift. If I had to choose an all terrain I would say duratrac as well

My BFG AT KO's are completely quiet on the highway and smooth. Little pricey but a good tire.

325/65 r18
Lil wider but it's a 35

That's the most common, but I think they have a 305/ 70 also in some tires

Another vote for BFG KOs.
Awesome wearing tire and excellent all around performance. Very quiet on the highway.
