Default 37s - Good aggressive AT or Mild MT

I currently am running Goodyear Duratracs in 31570R17 and have been very pleased with them. Quiet on road and do well off-road. I was wondering, if I were to go to 37s what tire would you recommend that would fall close to a Duratrac since they don't make them in 37s. Something like a very aggressive AT or mild MT. Can't say that I have been able to find anything in a 37 that is similar to the Duratracs...yet.

Looking at the same thing and narrowed down to the new Nitto tire coming out as well as the Toyo RT and MT Baja atz 3p. Will pick one of them soon

Check out the Mastercraft Courser MXT made by Cooper, seems like a great light weight option thats reasonably priced. I'm likely picking up a set soon.

I have Toyo R/T in 35's and love them. They only weigh a pound more or so in the 37's and cost about the same. 4wd.com has the best price on them. They look more aggressive in person but are very smooth and quiet. Also balance up easy. Made in the USA.

Definitely the Toyo RTs are awesome they are super quiet and ride smooth the 45k mile warranty is just a bonus. Click image for larger version

I have been running the MT ATZ P3s in 37" x 17 for the past year and like them. Quiet, balanced easily on my Trailready HD beadlocks and so far are the best trail & rocks tire I've used on my JK. Others include KM2s in 35 & 37 and 37" MTR/Ks. Only gripe, they've worn a bit quickly, partly because I ran them at too high a street pressure before I caught on.

I have the Cooper STT Pro and I (as well as others) are amazed at how quiet they really are. I would classify them as an extreme AT rather than a full on MT, the outer rows are kind of MT spaced, but the inner 3/2 rows are not. They are amazingly quiet, did I mention that? And they stick to rock very well, they ride well on roads, and look awesome with a very aggressive sidewall tread that demands attention. Overall, I personally feel that this is the best do-all tire on the market today.

I'm running the Goodyear MTR K's

37/12.5/17

At least to me they make a decent highway tire and a great off-road tire

If I have to replace them I'd possibly consider the Nippo's, but I've had such good luck with the Duratracs and the MTR's
