37in Tires and what size beadlockers?
Got my 3.5in RK X-Factor suspension....now Im looking for a great tire. I like the Toyo M/T Open Country but everyone around here runs them on everything and want to stand out from the crowd. Any Ideas on a good 37in M/T tire? Also looking for a nice bead-locker but not sure what size to run with 37s... any input on size and brand will be greatly appreciated.

No matter what rim, you want 3.5 back spacing to keep the tires from rubbing. Did you look at the nitto tires? Mine are wearing nicely. 15k miles and barely a difference between them and my spare. It seems most people are running 17 inch rims. With 37s larger rims look good, but I prefer spending less per rim and tire and have more rubber between the rocks and the rim. Nearly every beadlock I see are ATX slabs, but I like the look of the Trail Ready beadlocks ever since I saw a bright green Poison Spyder build.

for tires, i would look at the nitto mudgrappler, trailgrappler, ss irok radial, or pitbull rocker radial. as far as beadlocks, i guess it depends on which style of wheel you like. im happy with my spyderlocks

Your other thread was 'which lift' for 40" tires, which turned into an additional 10-15k + for axles plus all of the extras. Now, a few hours later, you have already not only decided on, but bought, a lift (not because of research, but because one or two people said it's good?) and you are set on 37's and beadlock(ers).
Maybe you should consider putting the credit card away and spending a few more days researching? I may be completely off-base, but it is sounding more and more like all you want to do is show off to your neighbors without every putting any real thought into the build...
If you do move on to 40's, you will likely be moving to d60's or better, right? They use a different bolt pattern, and should be wider than the stock axles - so you might be buying another expensive set of beadlock(ers) at that point.
You might also start looking into strength mods for that front d30. it may not hold up as well as you would like to 37's and heavy beadlock(ers).
