Don't let anyone else pick your tire for you.
They are likely going to pick the tire that benefits them the most.
Go some where like tirerack get the exact tire that meets your needs and have a tire shop put them on.

If you don't think you need an AT tire don't get them. I put Yokohama 31x10.5R15 AT/S tires on my suburban back in 2010. They are a great tire, but they are more than I need.
I wished I had gone with a highway tire. (yoko HT/S in that size)

2100RPM at 65mph sounds high. Unless its a tiny 4 cylinder.
