Default 37" Toyo Open Country MT True Size

It's posting this for reference to those doing research.

Look at my sig for setup. Measurement was at 28 PSI.

Got 36.25" on jeep with a half tank of gas.

According to Pro Cal and independent GPS I was slightly off. I put in 36" and GPS was spot on. Not eyeballing speedo rather readout on nav system.

So there you have it! Awesome tire by the way!

Great info. This just proves that all tires are different, even the same brand. I'm running the same tires on 17x9 wheels at 26psi, and mine measure 36.75 on the front and 36.5 on the rear. I also had to put in 1/4" smaller on the diameter to get a correct speedo. I think this is because the weight of the vehicle makes the lower radius smaller than the top.

Have you chalk tested your tires? 38psi seems like a lot. I had to come down to 26psi to get a good pattern on the edges of the tread.

I'm running the 37x13.5 on 17x9 at 28psi. Measured them when correcting the speedo to be at 36.25. They have about half the tread as my spare. I didn't put all the miles on this and whoever had them before me didn't rotate the spare - be interesting to see what the diff is.

That was a typo. I'm at 28 psi. Lol. I just typoed 3 times again. Fat fingers. Lol. So it's 28 not 38. I measured just one tire.

Rear driver 36.25 and 36 for speedo.

How do they balance? I heard they do very good. Also heard that, obviously with proper rotation and a tweaked PSI, they will get a lot of miles on the tread...

Any of you guys have mileage reports? Thinking of going with 35x12.50r17 if I can't find some damn Kevlar MTRs in 15".
