Default 37s. Whats the best road tire?

Looking for 37s for best ride. Most of my driving soon will be in the road as a sales rep and looking to get 37s. So most likely a/t but some m/ts have a great ride.

What's the best ride or less rolling resistance in 37s on 17.

Thanks

I was looking into BFG A/T in 37, but I decided to go with 35's. I found that the BFG A/T weighed significantly less than most other 37's

I have the bfg's and there great on road. I'm moving up to 37's soon and not sure if I'll do the Bfg route. Stupid thing is up here it's a $20-$30 difference between 35's and 37's.

I have heard good things on the Falken tires. The Nitto terra grappler is good aswell. Toyo has a good A/T also.

Falken tires look impressive. I am wondering about Cooper st or stt tires. They are under $300

been running the falken wildpeak at's and they are great on road, give much better mpg and work surprisingly well off road too.
