Default Tire Advice

OK Guys, I need some advice on tires. I'm buying a 05 Rubicon next weekend and plan to add some better tires. I want something that will hold up well on trails without being real rough. The big deep agri type treads are just too rough and aggressive for my taste so I'm leaning toward something like the Holeshot ATR here: http://www.itptires.com/beforeandaft...ubicon500.html or maybe the.... AT489'S here http://www.itptires.com/carlisletires.html. Any suggestions ???

Should I expect some power reduction with these tires??

Thanks...

I'm leaning toward going with 26" instead of 25" in the ATR. I've read where the ATR is labeled a low profile tire so how do they stack up to stock tires in terms of size? If I put 26" ATR's on a 05 Rubicon I know I'll see a diffrence but how much in terms of height and width. I plan to go with ITP C-Series Type 5 or 7 rims.

Thanks
