how did you measure them? manufactures dont measure top to bottom they measure corner to corner[lower outside to upper inside], kinda like TVs.

but yea OP your gunna look like your on stilts, im at 4.5" with 32x11.5R15 and can fully flex, could probly fit 33s with minimal trimming

I think it will look a lil disproportional. Im on 4.5inch lift with 31s and I think they are too small. I wanna run 33s now.

Are you sure thats how the measure? Im not saying your wrong, but that doesnt really make sense to me considering 33x12.50 and 33x15 is the same height.

worked at a tire shop for 3yrs and thats what i was told by a few of the suppliers, you gotta keep in mind that tires are not precisely manufactured and some companies over/under rate their tires, same as lift kits, for example me and a buddy installed 4.5" lift kits at the same time mine was rough country his was rubicon express and i sat 1/2"-3/4" taller than him

yea. interco(super swampers) usually run big... a 31 is 31.8 or 32. then bfg'd run small 31's are like 30.5... i had some 33x12.5 wild country rvt radials that measured 31.9 top to bottom and now i have 31x10.g general grabbers that are 30.8 top to bottom so really only lost an inch of height and width.
