From what I have read on here and my experience, 245/35/20 and 275/30/20 are the preferred tire size.

No, I personally have ran those sizes and it's fine. What width rims do you have, 8.5" and 10"?

I wouldn't say they are the preferred tire size at all because 245/35/20 is overspec(It's more than 3% of the 245/40/18). People run them for more cushion in areas with bad roads but will often find this size rubs.
