Got these in yesterday. Sweet tires. I have seen a few threads and people ask about them. Figured I'd contribute real world numbers since we're always wondering.

According to various websites, they claim tire weight of 62lbs.



Walmart scale test:


Actual unmounted height using a level (bubble in center):


Hope this info is helpful to someone.

 

I've had mine for 34,000 miles and plenty of tread left. I believe mine measured 33.75 mounted with 32psi

 

I noticed that the lighter the 35, the shorter it is.

I bought these to replace a set of Wild Country MTX 35x12.50x17. The brand new spare, I weighed at 64lbs on the walmart scale. Measured at 34.25" with the level. (Unmounted)

 

At exactly 34"....why aren't these companies advertising as a 34" tire? Seems misleading to list it as 35

No tire is true to size they all run smaller they they say

 

I know...just wondering why not just label it true to size?

My Nitto trail grapplers measure exactly 34 inches not mounted. When they were mounted on the stock rim they measured 34 7/8s. That's pretty close to 35. I bet yours will be taller aired up.

 

Man, I hope so. 7/8" just mounting and aired? Wow.. These tires are advertised at "34.8".. I'm not sure that's going to happen.

Nittos are a heavy tire, and I'm not surprised they run very close to size.. Usually the heavier tires do.

 

That "34 is unmounted, and not aired. Doing so will increase the diameter. Wheel width also has an effect on inflated tire diameter. Lastly, vehicle weight has an effect on the static rolling diameter of a tire, RPM and centrifugal force can also play into tire diameter at speed.

 

seems like mounted aired up would be a bit less then unmounted. Rim width probably also plays a roll in actual height.
