What load rating do you need? Do you tow? Haul? If not, go with the same load rating you have now.

They look good. For this area they'd be impractical for a daily driver, especially in the winter. The MT style tire generally don't have much siping and on wet, snow, and ice, they don't have much traction. I had a set of Firestone Destination MT tires on a jeep and ended up selling them because I could only drive on sunny days - they were fairly noisy on pavement as well. The Nitto Terra Grappler I got recently work well on dry & wet and don't make much noise.
