If you get a lot of ice and snow in your area a 225 square setup would probably offer better traction than a 265.
265 is fine for a 8" wheel but I would recommend 265/40/18 for snow. In any case I would not go shorter than the 265/35/18 especially for you with all that low rpm torque you're sporting.
