OP, you might need to swap to some Rubicon/Mojave front fenders and do a 1-inch level, should be plenty of room at that point.

Edit to add that I run a 1.5 inch front spacer andf 3/4 inch rear spacer on my Mojave with 37's, I cannot make the tires rub and have tried hard

I have 35s and it rubs with very little articulation around our property. So I would say no. I'll be doing a leveling kit or springs in the front soon. Been too busy.

do you want an off-road truck that has to be careful over speed bumps? Because that's how you get an off-road truck that has to be careful over speed bumps.
You can stick 37" on one with a front leveling kit . But as stated in other post off road capabilities will not be as good.
I went 2.5" lift and 35's I have had mine in some really flexed positions no problem.

Hmmm....... and 35" on my Rubicon used to rub inner fender and sway bar at full turn. Maybe I should have gone right to 37"s

'22 JTR on 37" Toyo Open Country MT w/17" rim. In this shot she had stock springs in the rear w/ RockKrawler 2.25 RRD shocks, front end got a 1.5" RockKrawler level. Springs, ADJ. LCA and the same 2.25 RRD. No complaints with this set up, although I am currently in my shop changing it all up again lol

2.5” Rc spacer in front. 37 1250 20s. No rubbing I did do the “fender chop”. It’s a Willy’s though. My daystar 3/4 rear spacer should be here today. But I’m just putting it on for loaded weight sag.

Level kits or springs don't prevent rub. They give you more room for uptravel before you rub, but even a 6" spring will compress enough for 37s to rub stock flares. BUMPSTOPS set the uptravel period. You can add bumpstop spacers at stock height and prevent rub, but uptravel will be limited.

so a 1.5” leveling kit with bump stops on the front?
Would a 2.5” spacer up front a 1” rear spacer work? Is that even a thing?

Either would work. I went with the AEV 2" spacer kit for the mojave. With the internal bypass shocks is more critical to keep everything in the ride zone. 2" spring spacers front and rear, 2" bump stop extensions, and 2" shock extensions. Rides like stock with 2" more ground clearance and plenty of room for 37s.

Rims backspace and offset play a big part in rubbing too

True, but ultimately the only thing that prevents rubbing is bump stops. I've seen people post pics of their no lift/ no rubbing set up "flexed out" to prove it doesn't rub and you can see in the pic that the bump stops aren't even touching yet.

I can't get on my bump stops with my sway bar connected on my Mojave that has a 1.5 inch front coil spacer and a 1 inch bump stop extension, it just won't flex that hard connected... I often hit them going fast over bumps where compression is not limited by the sway bar, meaning both sides are going up
