Now who is being inaccurate?

Yes not 37" but no, not 35"

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

Oh I'm not disappoint at all lol. Just pointing out the obvious. I like BF Goodrich and have ran them on my last two trucks. Just weird that people pay so much more for a "37" package and your running 35 ish tires that's all. I definitely wasn't aware of this however and started measuring vertical and laterally and it was the same. Maybe it's just unique to my truck. Who knows.

i mean weve all been here at some point before we learned the hard way

Always seemed silly to me the naming of them despite not being at that #

Subway Sandwich corp got sued when it was "discovered" that their footlong sandwiches weren't. Between that and the "Jared Fogel, our child-molesting spokesman" scandal, they've got bigger problems than truck tire sizes.

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!!!!!
Exactly! Nominal vs Actual!

I, too, was disappointed when I measured my 37" tires. I had 800lbs of stuff in the back and hooked up to boat. Tires were aired up to 30psi and they didn't measure 37". Everyone at the boat ramp was laughing at me. So embarrassing:p

Wait, what? Weight makes a difference? ;) Just for the fun of it I measured three different tires on Miss Big Booty and I have three different measurements. Fronts are taller than rears and beds are taller than fronts. Who would’ve thunk it? Haha.
