cant find a certain Tyre Question thread. can someone halp?

Post by junior80 »

searched for as long as the boss had his back turned, couldn't locate it.

i remember a thread about tyres that were marketed as 35's but when measured they were smaller like 34" or something,

I basically want a new set of tyres, bigger than my 33's at the moment, but not quite as big as 35's.


anyone?

going 34's you would gain a massive 1/2 inch raise from your 33's... Why bother?

315/75x16's are not 34's....they range from 34.5 to 35 inches depending on manufacturer.

I have not yet come across a tyre marked as a 315 that is 34" tall.

the MTZ is the closest at 34.5

I will be :D . Because if i want a certain tyre i'll buy it. And my next tyre purchase will be 315/75/16 mud and i wont care if it's 34.5 or 35. Tyres are never the same as the advertised size, it's one of those things you have to live with.
