Tall skinny 35" tire?

Does such a tire exist? I currently have 255/85/16 tires which are considered skinny tires (not quite pizza cutters like the 235s) and I was wondering if there was a tall 35" tire that would fit the stock rims.

315/75/16 is probably the best bet for tall skinny. Its roughly a 34" or 35" x 11.5" tire

A 315/75R16 is a 12.4" wide tire that is 34.6" tall.*

*based on the tire manufacturer making tires that abide by the generic metric format. Some manufacturers make tires smaller or larger than others that are listed as the same size.

I know Interco and a few other manufacturers make 35x10.50s. Now that's a true "tall skinny".

The tire will fit the stock wheel. The wheel fitting your rig with the 315 mounted on it is another story.

I hear that!

and the issue with the 35x10.50 is that i believe it is a BIAS ply tire... so say good bye to the nice radial ride
