Default gear ratios

Do you guys have any idea what gear ratio I should run if I choose to buy 37" tires?

Ridiculous
It's always the easier option to just ask but your likely to get ignored. Search & read

If you check the stickies at the top of the modified JK section (or the tab on the phone app) there's a thread for FAQs, questions every newbie has. Gears versus tires are discussed there, including a couple very handy charts.

Don't take it personally but these questions are asked every other day on this forum. It gets old very fast, it really is ridiculous. Nobody researches anything once they join.

I like the "teach them to fish" approach. It reduces future questions that are in the FAQs, and works better than being mean to each other. And the forum is a nicer place to visit.
