Was that measured on the truck, because you'll lose upto an 1" in the squash of the tyre if it's at a lowish pressure? I would have thought all Khumo tyres will be the same size, but other '33"' tyres may vary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Attryde Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 According to the Kumho Site :- Here the 33" tyre only measures 32.3" anyway so you are not that far off especially if the measurements were made with the weight of the vehicle was on the the tyre.
