 Subject: True size of Procomp Xterrains?
IP: Logged
Message:
Hey,
I am looking into getting a set of Procomp's Xterrains (33 12.50 15), and I am finding the measurements from their website a bit curious. Here's what they say:
Overall Diameter: 31.4
Overall Width: 10.9.
The rest of the specs really don't concern me, but can anyone verify the accuracy of these sizes?
I would have expected a 33 12.50 to be at least 32" tall and 12" wide.
If the posted sizes are correct, I'm in business, because they will fit like a 32 11.50, but if they are wrong, I've got to go with the ATs.
A little help here?

IMO it's an error. Look at the sizes for the AT's and MT's to get an idea how big the XT's are.

It all depends on what width wheel you have. wider wheel will make a fatter and shorter tire. Skinnier wheel will make it taller and narrower.

I couldn't find sizes on ther website. go figure.
I've heard of some company's that don't measure the tread, I heard this about swamper but don't know if it's true.
you scared me though as I had just ordered 31-12.50 x terrains a week ago.

I have 8 inch rims on my 2000 4X4 quadcab, and the standard body lift that comes with the off-road package.
Is anyone running 33 12.50 15 xterrains with the same setup, or should I just have one tire test fit and see what happens?
In response to Conig, you can find the specs at this web address:

McCracken,
I see what you mean with the size of the ATs. I'm just now sure whether they have made a mistake in the specs or not.
If it is a mistake, then they need to come out with some 32 11.50 15s for Dakota owners.

I have an '02 w/ a 3" PA Body Lift (Torsion Bars Cranked a little) and I'm running 33x12.5 XTerrians on 15x10 Eagle Alloy 589's - (in my opinion it's a big tire) - I had to do a good bit of trimming and they still hit sometimes (I know some of this is due to the 10" wide rims, but here's a few pictures that might help):
There is also a better side view at this site:

i'm running a 3" PA body lift(i don't recommend the trailmaster), 2" add-a-leaf, and cranked torsion bars, 15X10 Weld SS rims. all this and i still rub(it's the 10" rims).
i recommend not getting thornbirds, i've had them before and they sucked a$$. on an 8" rim you should be able to run 33/12.5 without going as high as i did. the only thing that'll rub is the tire on the inside of the frame, which is not a real big deal.
