Tire height difference

[DrippinRaptor]

I'm trying to figure out how much taller (height) a 35/1250/17 is versus the factory 315/70/17. I've got about 1.5 inches of clearance when I pull into my garage and am hoping I will still clear it with the 35s.

Thanks.

Here is the conversation for the OEM tires

34.4x12.4 R17

So 35s are about .6 of an inch taller? Or am I reading that wrong?

Which 35x12.50 17s are you looking at? Different brands have different overall heights...although they are minimal.

35's are not typically 35" unless you get an aggressive tread. Each tire is different so you will have to look at the specs or measure personally before you purchase. Even if they are 35" you will only be gaining a 1/4" in height on 1/2" larger diameter tire

Seems like about 1/2 " whic is what I converted the factory tire size too on my truck.

Here's a pic of factory comapred to 37's...Just for grins.

Probably something tame, as I do a lot of highway driving. Something like a General Grabber AT2 or similar.
