Well, since I had the 37" Krawlers on the truck, I was offered more $$ than I paid for them. So I sold them. 
I went back to my 33" MT/R's and have used them since.
Now I have a chance to get an early production set of the new BFG Mud Terrain KM2. They are supposed to be available now, but I don't think they are readily available. They are a re-designed Krawler design. They look very similar, but uses a slightly harder rubber, slightly smaller tread blocks, and slightly shallower sidewall treads.
The cool part of the deal, is it's a set of 5, brand new 37/12.50/17 BFGoodrich KM2's from a magazine owner. It's a good deal cheaper than buying from a store, but the catch is...
They want to make a tire review article with them on my truck! 
So, I'll be getting them next week, then I get to go wheeling, take some pics, do a writeup on what I think of them, and they make the article. I'm guessing it won't be on newstands until Feb/March, so I'll let you know. In the meantime, I'll post some pics with the new tires on my truck when I get them.
Look here to see my truck with the older 37's.

Had to modify the stock tire carrier to fit a 37" tire. This spaces it out, up, and slightly to the driver's side to clear the liscence plate.

I can still see out the back window...just not the 3 cars right behind me.
This truck is supposed to be my daily driver, as I have a fully modified 4Runner for my offroad duties. Unfortunately, the 4Runner has been in the driveway for quite some time getting new mods, so I've been wheeling this truck. I'm trying to keep it pretty, but it's really hard to do.
