You can do far better than the OEM tire...

Highway, maybe one of the Michelin LTX series?
AT, Falken AT4W?

I’m at 90k miles now on oem. I figured they lasted so long I’d just replace with same. But I’ll check those others out.

Territory AT.

Since I’ve gotten 90k in the conditions I drive, am I really going to see any better performance than that? I live in Ohio so I see snow and have been happy with them in winter. And they’re not a loud tire. What will another brand tire offer?

If you are happy with those, by all means, get them again, that's pretty good service out of them for sure.
I'm always looking at, and buying, different brands and model of tires, hoping the next set will be the optimum for me. I think I found two, Falken AT3W/AT4W, and Toyo ATIII. Likely not the type of tire you'd like, I highly doubt I'll even get close to the service life you did.

My OEM wranglers are passenger car. not rated like you ask. for ratings you need to go to a LT (light truck) tire.

Load Index for the OE tires is likely 116, which is 2756 lbs. A load range C tire will actually hold 220lbs LESS than that load index 116 SL "passenger car" tire. A load range E would support 3415lbs at 80psi, but will be heavier and ride far worse.

Do you have LT's? They were an option, and I had them on my 2016. I got about 70k on my E range LT's, towing a lawn trailer/zero-turn 80% of the time. When I replaced them, they put non-LT/load range C tire, and only got 29k out of them, towing murdered those tires. I thought the LT's rode just as well as my C rated tires. They also lasted longer than the Michelin LTX's I had on my 2010 prior.

Max weight rating should be stamped on the sidewall of the tire. I forget the exact rating for my current Wrangler AT Adventure (OEM equivalent) tires, but I know it's a good bit more than the rear axle rating. So no chance of overloading them unless the truck is seriously overloaded. I do air them up near the max 50 psi when I tow. They handle well when towing, are smooth and quiet on the highway, and provide decent traction in snow and mud. I've seen no reason to go to a LT tire or a more aggressive AT tire.
