35 is the best size if you don't want to invest in building your rig for 37s. Trail Grapplers are awesome tires, but very heavy. Ultimately you need to decide what you want to do with your rig and then you will get better suggestions on tires.
But, for 37s you'll need either more lift and/or more cutting than needed for 35s, more bump stop, truss/sleeve your axle, weld on c gussets, and if you haven't done it regearing to maintain good drivability. Over time you will need to replace your ball joints sooner and get better ones like Synergy as well as upgrading steering if necessary. 37s, especially heavier ones like Trail Grapplers, put tons of stress on your front end.

The round ones....
Your gonna get a hundred different answers. Do a little research and pick what you like.
Loved my mud grapplers but they were a little loud.
Toyos are heavy and they pulled to one side bad.
Running the trail grapplers now. One was so out of round it hops going down the interstate. Have to run it as a spare.
All have there plus and minuses.
