Default 37" tire options

What are the 37" tire options? Has anyone compiled a list? What is the best value? Im not set on any wheel size so that's not an issue.

Goodyear MTR's and BFG KM2's seem to be the most popular choices. The BFG's aren't exactly true to manufacture's specs though. These two seem to offer the best weight savings. Toyo MT's are absolute pigs in the weight department, but basically a true 37" tire, same as the MTR's.

There are lot of options out there. Don't forget Nitto, Falken, Cooper. Just to name a few. Go to Discount Tires website and put in the size. It will probably give you 70% of the options that are out there.

Best bang for your buck is really going to depend on AT vs MT and wheel size.

Another way I found some results is going to google images and typing up MT tires, or jeep tires, stuff like that, find a certin look or tread patten you like. Hunt down who makes that tread you like then see if they make it In a size 37". Nitto's are the biggest lug out there, mud grappler. I run 37's and I have an 18" rim. So my options are: interco tires( they make all kinds of 37's). nitto mud grappler. The bfg KM2. The MTR Kevlar. And everyones favorite.... The TOYO's. If your looking for an all-terrain the two I am aware of are the Mickey Thomson ATZ(what I have) and the other choice is the Interco M-16 tire. If you find others, let me know.

I love my 35' Duratracs, but want 37s when I get the '12. Any 37s look and ride like Duratracs??

I liked my Toyo MT tires a lot on my JK and will be heading back that direction after I burn through my MTRs. As for Toyo 37s on the JK, the 17" wheel version is too much tire for a JK with many people complaining about not being able to get enough air out of them for on road comfort, and better to go with an 18" or 15" wheel.

no way... Duratracs are way more aggressive looking you can tell from a mile away If I had to suggest anything I'd say either Cooper STT's or the new Nitto Trail Grapplers, they look really aggressive but have excellent on road handling and wear from what I've read and heard.
