Default 37x13.5 or 38x14.5

So, I've been looking all over the place and it's coming down to new tires for our JKu. We're running a RK 3.5 so we have the height and a PR44u up front and a stock rear 44 which we will upgrade the axles soon.

I am currently running 37" MT MTZs.

I do not want to step to 40s, but I am wanting a wider tire. What would be the best choice for our setup?

37x13.5 or 38x14.5?

I'd do the 37's. I would guess the price jump up to the 38's per tire is quite large. Both of those are wide, but I'd do the 37's.

Get some rocker bias ply! I think there 37 is 16.5 wide!
