It would help if we know what your putting it on. Can you post up a pic?
If your going to do any low level comps some have a 37" tire restriction. I also like that the 37 is a little wider.
What rims?????

Fixed.

Id go with the 37s, like Dave said, they are wider, giving a more stable stance.
Just make sure you beadlock those suckers though.

37's are undersized and only work well at very low pressure, i would never buy a set again.

Hey Cranky how are the Treps for wear ? I like the look of them but have heard they wear quicker than Simex's.
Cheers

I'd say about on par with pedes. At a guess ( ok stab in the dark) I have done 10-15k on mine and are down to about 60 percent.
