Hi guys, new owner of a silver 2013 Yukon SLT. I just purchased some 22" KMC XD Hoss gloss black wheels. Now I'm trying to decide which tire to put on. After reading all the great information on the forum, it seems like the 305/40/22 is the size to go with. My question is should I go with an A/T tire like the Cooper Zeon ltz or Terra Grappler or a street tire? I don't do any off-road stuff and I live in Florida so there is no issue with snow. The car is driven 50/50 city/highway. I think the A/T tires will look better but I'm a little afraid of the road noise. Will there be a noticeable difference look wise between the A/T and street tire? And what about the road noise difference? Thanks for your input.

Would you put an A/T tire on like a Cooper Zeon ltz or terra grappler or a street tire? I don't do any off roading, all highway/city driving. Live in Florida, no snow. I think the A/T tire will look better, but I don't want to have a bunch of road noise. What are your thoughts? Will the street tire look worse than the A/T tire? Thanks for your help
