2 of them are exactly same tire with one having white letters. last option is a m/t, I would assume, a/t tires to be quieter than m/t

The offroad(All Terrain) tires will be quieter on pavement than the M/T (Mudd Terrain) tires.

As noted, the AT tire will be quieter. None will be quiet per se and the Wrangler generally is a loud vehicle though.

I seem to recall that someone posted they had gotten Falken AT3W tires, instead of the BFG KO2, from the factory on their Rubicon. Anyone else? I would guess the Falken AT3W is quieter. Also, brand new tires with only a couple hundred miles will be very quiet, even some very aggressive tread patterns.

I know other makers like GM will normally deliver with one make, but also have other makes of tires that may be substituted at their discretion, when you check a particular option.

I put the Rubicon A/T tires (BFG KO2) on my Sport and can't really tell a difference between them and the stock Goodyear Kevlars that it came with.

I have a 21 JLUR with 1800 miles now on it in 2 weeks. I had a 14 JKUS. I can not tell a difference between the BFG K02 and the Duelers that were on the Sahara as far as road-noise, smoothness of the ride, etc. I mean it is louder than my wife's Malibu but it is a Jeep. There are only 2 options, AT one is Black wall and white wall same tires, and then the MT

I had stock A/T tires on my JLUS, and my wife has stock M/T tires on her JLUR, both 2020s, and the A/T tires were much quieter on the highway.

They will get more noisy as they get more miles on them. At about half life, they still aren't bad, but you'll definitely hear them.
