Never heard of any. And most likely if you have done a Google search and found nothing then you probably won't. And I think that humvee wheels have some crazy deep backspacing so even making custom adapters wouldn't work.
Don't quote me as 100%. I looked into the same thing for my Gnight truck as I was able to get like new military mtrs dirt cheap. Just could never find wheels cheap enough to make it worth it.

You can get H1's recentered to whatever application you need or want.
37's on stock axles, well that's another topic all together! I and many others have run them before (37" Boggers here), and also broke a lot of equipment.
I agree though, you can't beat the price of H1 take offs, they're everywhere, cheap, and good tires.

Yes sir, your funds will be diverted and it will kill you to buy flower centerpieces and pay deposits for DJs over buying stuff for your rig! Just a heads up, you will be sick about it, but you'll smile the whole time.
Congrats!

37s+stock axles=big no no. If you have a D35, i REALLY wouldnt advise it. People change out the D35 to run 33's for fear of breaking it. If you're really dead set on doing it then just run it and if you break it then replace the rear with a 29 spline 8.25 or D44 if your dead set on keeping the same bolt pattern.
