tire question

[steved]

I have a somewhat stupid question on tire size. I bought a set of Revos to replace my stock Dunlops on my '03 SE 4Runner. Even though they are the same size could they be physically different sizes?

Yes. 265/65r17 Revos are .1" shorter than the Dunlops of the same size.

Most tire manufacturers list the specs on their websites.

The answer is YES, each manufacture makes their tire a little different.

If you look at the specs. for both tires, the REVOs are (30.5"), ONLY 1 tenth of an inch smaller in overall diameter then OEM (30.6"). This is almost NOTHING as far as vehicle height.
