Cordless impacts are a sweet invention no matter the brand lol, and they're 30x8x12s, with highlifter 2.5" lift

Can you please measure the actual height? I've been looking for this. Thank you.

Height from where on the pioneer? Ground clearance? Top of tailgate? Roof to ground?

He is referring to the actual measured height of the tire when mounted and aired up. Some kind of rubber fetish driving @joeymt33 after spending $1400 on forward arching A-Arms. Kinda like the girl that want bigger hoohas bolted on :p

More explanation many tires are not the size on the sidewall, for example: The 27" OEM tires from Honda are only 25.5" tall with 14 PSI in them. Many 30" tires are only 28-29" at most, which don't even need a lift, let alone forward A-Arms but one example a 30" Roctane XD is 30.4" and even a 3" lift alone they will not clear.

In essence he wants to run the largest tire in "actual size" he can but there is no truth in advertising with these tires and Joey & I have probably tried 3 sizes each to get what works for our different setups, I went too big and had to downsize because I went from a 25.5" tire to a 30.5" tire and a 2" lift didn't even come close to helping so after a $900 investment ha dto walk it back. He on the other hand tried 2 different sets and neither measured up to his expectations after spending good $$$ on the forward A-Arms and is feeling the itch to fill out his tank top with new "bolt ons" :p

Keep us updated on how those Interforces do. I was going to buy a set of 30x8x14s before I found a deal on some OL2s.

Those tires only measure like 29.5, I'll take a pic later, took it to hillarosa this past weekend did good, didn't get stuck, kept up with most everyone else, skinny tires make for a rougher ride, impressed with it, and I might paint the roof, those stickers on the side of the roof got killed by branches this weekend

If they measure 29.5" under he weight of he vehicle, that could be really good depending upon what pressure you run.

Thanks for measuring.
