37" mtrs worked pretty damn good for me but the opportunity has arose and I think its time to try out a set of 39.5 Iroks and 35" baja claws for the road.  I've also ran some 305 exterrains and they worked really well with what I did with them and seamed to hold up well and I also ran a set of 36" tsls but wasnt too impressed with them in any catagory but they were alright.  right now im running some generic 31x10.5 ats that cannot grip for :pokinit: in any condition and I hate them.

I currently run 31x12.50x15 Interco TSL Thornbirds, but of course they are too small now. I like the looks and on-road off-road characteristics of Thornbirds, but 31's are $180.00ea., so my new tires will be 35x12.50x15 Kumho Venture MT's...great on-road and off, radials for smooth ride, and only $146.00ea.!! http://www.tirerack.com/tires/Sizes.jsp?make=Kumho&model=Road+Venture+MT+834

And i'll put Staun pneumatic beadlocks inside...locks both the inner and outer bead, kinda functions as a run-flat, and only $185.00ea., cheaper and better than beadlock rims. http://www.4wheelparts.com/4wp/products/productline.asp?cat=ACC&man=STN&prodline=4417&catName=General%20Accessories

Not cheaper than weld on beadlocks but I agree they probably are better unless you smash the unprotected outer bead of your wheel on rocks.
