Default Three choices

- Goodyear MTR/Kevlars (see my avatar for picture)
- Falken Wildpeaks (less aggressive looking, but phenomenal capability)
- Nitto Trail Grappler

You want a true 37? You need to be looking at 38s and 39s then.

My Toyo Open Country MTs are great. They are very round and usually don't need any balancing. With larger tires that makes a big difference to me. I wanted MTRs but with the known balance issues I went Toyo. I run mine at 28psi and the ride is very nice.

Depending on the snow/ice conditions you get in South Jersey, I would stay away from the BFG KM2's (if that is the BFG you are looking at). It does not do well in snow, in fact it is probably one of the worst offroad tires for winter conditions.

Check out the Pro Comp X-Treme All Terrains. Nice square look. Great tire on and off road with even wear. I had over 35k miles on them when I sold my H2. I ran 37/13.50/18's. They also have them in 12.50 width for 17 and 18" wheels. When my BFG All-Terrains KO's wear out on my Rubi I will probably go back to Pro Comp. You might still be able to get the buy 3 get 1 free deal through them also.
