So there I was with a buddy and a tape measure just hanging out talking and I thought I would measure my tire... Well my KO2 are not 37s on my 37 package and as marked on the tire, they are 35 inches high front and back. So are 35" tires really 33" ? Tire pressure is at 39 psi on a 2022 37 package.

A real 37 will scrub under a prius
I guess lol.Must be a north american thing lol we like to round up "a lot".Next time I get a true 37 maybe they will be 40" tires so I can tell everyone " hey look I got some 40" tires just don't measure lol.

I'm just happy I didn't pay full price for a 37 package that only has 35" tires.

Now who is being inaccurate?

Yes not 37" but no, not 35"

So you won't be disappointed in future tire purchases:

39psi isn't close to enough. 139psi will reduce that ugly sidewall bulge and get you closer to spec. Better yet, try some bias ply tires. J/K Don't be stupid. Now look what you've done. I feel stupid for having to tell you not to be stupid. And you're going to keep getting shit until you post a pic of your rig....

And 2x4 are not 2 inch x 4 inch. so don't buy them either. or 2x6, 2x8, 2x10, 2x12, 1x4,1x6, 1x8,1x10,1x12. None of these are what they are advertised!!!!! The best buy is a sheet of MDF it is 49x97 not 4'x8'. so that is a good buy for sure!!!!
Prius owners!!!!!
