I was lucky to get 37x12.5R17 KM3's at Costco and they're an amazing improvement over the stock 33" K02's. But the KM3's are short (35 13/16") and look really skinny. I can get 37x13.50R17 NITTO MUD GRAPPLERs that are probably 3" wider at the tread and 3/4" taller. I hate mud, mostly rock crawling and some loose dirt/sand. Those giant voids to clear mud won't be grabbing on rock, but because they're so wide, they'll probably do better than the KM3's.

I have my JT Brooks deflators set to 13 PSI on the fronts, 10 on the rear. Even the stock tires have the same footprint at the same pressure, but the wider footprint should give better traction.

Is your rig trailered to trails? There was another thread talking about these, the wear and noise was horrendous evidently.
