2021 TrailBoss LT - NEED NEW TIRES

check out Mickey Thompson Baja boss ATs they are very aggressive looking and way quieter then the duratracs. They are also great in snow, mud and rain. Currently putting 275/70/18 with stock lift.
 
I would not consider myself a tire wiz by any means but would love some help. Looking for something somewhat rugged but with less noise than I am having on the stock Goodyears with 35K miles. Also looking to fill out the wheel well a bit more. Any recommendations on bigger size and brands? I do have a level kit installed. 18' wheels.
nitto ridge grappler on 17x9 rims with -12 offset and 1.75 RL kit. mudflap delete and ZERO rubbing! good chunky looking tires, suite the TB well.

Falken Wild-peak AT3s I have a295/70/r18 with 1.25 inch wheel spacers look great very quiet and great in rain and snow
 
I am going to jump in with the Goodyear ultra terrains, I just had them installs 2 weeks ago and have been very happy with them will not compare to the 65K duratracs that I replaced since I can not remember exactly what the they sounded like new, but they are quiet on the road and good traction in wet weather. preformed well off road in mud and gravel. I did go up to the 275/70/18s did not have any affect on the speedometer or MPG. and the one extra inch makes a difference in filling out wheel well. So far very happy with them if I get 50-60K miles I will be ecstatic with them.

Ultraterrains will definitely be quieter than Duratracs...they are a different class of tire. This tire is a great choice if you don't mind a less "off-roady" looking tire. It's going to be better in all categories on-road and will only give up a little off-road traction vs the Duratrac. It's also lighter, so really a win-win.

If we're being honest with ourselves, this class of tire looks a bit "wimpy" on a truck like the Trail Boss...but in pure function, it's what 90% of us should be running.
