Default 35s ?

I am going to run 35s. I have been putting the tape to a few that buddies have and I have been getting different number so far 1 to 2 inches different in height from the ground to the top of the tire. What is one of the taller 35s out there as I want to run the tallest 35 i can buy. The tires i have been messureing are apples to apples IE, I am not messuring a road tire then messuring a mudder. Hope this makes sense. Have a good one. Thanks for the intel

Josh

Yep, it makes sense. Lots of threads about it.

MTR/K's are supposed to be a bit closer to the stated height. KM2's are known to be on the shorter side. My Bighorns and Terra's were both short. Just do a little browsing/searching, plenty of threads on this for you to look through.

toyo mt's and goodyear mtr's are some of the taller 35's you can find but, you should know that they will still come up short.

I have a question why do tire manufacturers make a true measurment tire. Why are they all 34.5 or 34.7 or whatever and not just 35's?
