i pick up a set of 4 silverstones m117 extremes about 8 months ago in a 35 X 10.5 R16 and they measured little over a 34 on a 16x8.
i recently picked up another and there are just under a 35.
i heard the first batch to arrive into to Oz were a little undersized and the new one whilst not exact are truer to the sidewall marking.

I sell both silverstone and Simex. They have both had recent price increases, i believe beacuse, malaysia trade in american dollars.
Silverstone's largest tyre is a 35/11.50 and the ones i have fitted have measured at around 34 3/4 to 35 inches. There has been some size issues in the past, however the current importer does check and will refuse undersized batches.
As a rough guide, a silverstone will be about 70-80 dollars a tyre cheaper than an equivelent simex.

I just bought 4 MT117 sports in 285/75x16 for $245 a tyre from Hobzee's 4x4.
I put them next to my 60% worn Maxxis Buckshots of the same size and these are just under an inch taller! the maxxis website sates they are a true 33inch diameter when new......
