    We'll in non metric I have found in 2 different measurements that the tire size is off.
    My son bought mom 33x 12.50 tires, the 12.50 is correct, but the height is not 33.
    They measured out at 31 inches, actually not as tall as the Goodrich tires were at 32 inches.
    So, risking things a bit there's is a lifted truck in our plaza.
    I went down and did a height measure. They stated 35 inch on side wall, and they were 33.
    Different brands as well, I used to buy 33x 12.50 procomp tires until about 2007
    They were not full 33 but close.
    Correct me if I'm wrong, but he did say the first number in non metric was the height?

    Is it shown on the tire where is the heaviest part? And how to find the heaviest part of the wheel? Reading instruction on Wheel Balancer I came across the statement, that if those 2 points (heaviest parts) coincide, it is not possible to balance the tire, you need to rotate it 180 degrees relative to the wheel. Thank you for the informative film.

    There's a lot of video's on how to read tire sizes, but none of them say if every number has to match exactly with the old tires.
    My old tires are p205/55r16 89H and the tires I found for sale says p205/55R16 91H. Will that 2 mm make a big difference in the safely and handing of my driving?

    • @TrailBuilt
      @TrailBuilt  ปีที่แล้ว

      A lot of it depends on what kind of driving you will be doing with that setup, I would say though a size that looks good and also can be functional is 225/65 with 17x9 wheels! Check out this build running those exact specs and see if you like it! www.customwheeloffset.com/wheel-offset-gallery/1997954/2021-subaru-forester-cosmis-racing-xt-206r-oem-stock

I just want to add on bigger tires without them rubbing or touching anything while turning. I want the clearance. I want to know what type of tires I need without adding any spacers or lift kits.
