Default What's the Largest All-Terrain Tire?

Who makes the largest All - Terrain tire?

My 35 inch MTR/K's have finally worn out and I'm looking to go with an all-terrain this time as I have 35 mile commute every day and I'm only on trails/rocks a few times in the summer. I'd like to go with 35's again, but I might consider 37's too. I have 4.88 gears with a manual and my RPM's are getting above 3000 just to go the speed limit (75 mph here in Colorado). My most obvious option is the Goodyear Duratrac, but it seems a bit on the small side of a 35. I also hear that BFG AT's come in a 37. So I'm looking for either a tall 35 or a short 37 if that makes sense.

Help a brotha out!

I know the Falken Wild Peak and Rocky Mountain come in 37 or the Nitto Terra Grappler. Couple more options to check out.

Falken Wildpeak AT come in 37s. People rave about them on and off the road. I also believe they are on the small side of a 37 (something like 36.3). Idk what rim size you are looking for but in 18 they come 37x13.50r18 but in 17 i think it is 37x12.50r17

Fierce Attitude (made by Goodyear) is a play on the Duratracs tread but made in a true 35x12x17 instead of the smaller metric 315's

I've been told a 315 tire is about at the limit of the stock 7.5" wheels. If you're wider, you're probably good to go, but I remember this from discussions about putting 35's on the stock Moabs.

Actually I heard they run small as well. About the same size as the duratrac maybe even smaller

What gear ratio do you have? Also, do you happen to know their mounted ride height?
