Im trying to find the ACTUAL size of a 35 claw, the only new tyres I could measure were 31atz and they were 29!
So would that mean the 35 is only 33?
Couldnt find there website and the only info I could find was 35"to mm not actual size.

Yep found the conversion from inches to mm but unfortunatley they arnt true sizes. I would expect somewhere around 34 but like I said 31 only measured 29 wtf??
MaybeI should just ring and ask them to run a tape across a 35 radial for me?
Thanks for the input.

Im wanting to know as my engineers cert says 33s and I can get agood deal on new 35 claws. But then i,ll have to reengineer it so I dont want to go through all that trouble for a 35" tyre that only measures 33".
My 33" worn bfgs are about 31 1/2 atm.

It goes on whats marked on the sidewall - not what they measure.
I know that thats why Im trying to find out the actual size.
Its no point getting a GREAT deal on new 35s and reengineering it if they only measure 33. it would be easier to just buy a true 33 like maxxis and no need to reengineer if that makes sense?

i"ve measured half worn 38inch super swampers mounted on 15 x 8 steelies, off the vehicle, at 910mm { just 36 inches }. 2 inches short & they definetly hadn"t lost 2 inches off the tread.
steel, ive just measured some nearly bald 37 boggers which measure 35.9 and the spare was 36.9. on 10s. and some 33 tsls which were on 15x8s that were only an inch shorter. i think tsls differ hugely epending on rims.
when i put my 33" claws on my old bus, i sat them next to my old hankook 33"s and the claws sat a good inch taller... mind you, the hankooks had worn down to bugger all...

The swampers i measured were"nt the ones with the tread coming around the sidewalls, { don"t know if they are TSL"s or not ]. I suppose rim width may effect a tires rolling diameter. My michelins measured pretty much the same on 5.5 inch splitties as on 8 inch sunnies.
