Yea nice they are defiantly a good looking size, suit the 18s nice.

I just prefer the 10mm more sidewall on the 17 bit more insurance on low psi on the rocks and from the 2 sets of 305/70r18s I have seen you cant notice any overall height difference comparing them to the larger brands (goodyear + nitto) although they are noticeably bigger then 35inch KM2s

but the main killer for me is nearly all 305/70r18s are Load rating E which I do not like on the JK.

I'm also on 4.88s and agree works very well with 35s

305/70r18s are ment to be 34.8inch
315/70r17 are ment to be 34.4inch
35x12.5r17 obviously 35inch

my 315/70r17 MTR/K unmounted @40psi measured 89cm (35.01inch) mounted @32psi measured 37cm (34.25inch)


35x12.5r17 Trail Grappler @34psi 33.9inch (34.25inch unmounted)
35x12.5r17 KM2 mounted @38psi 33.3inch

Just a few measurements I have been taking all on near new tyres (under 5000km) I am beginning to have a strange obsession with tyres lol

I'm the same I was a checking out every tyre on every 4wd, until my mates tyres were obviously taller when I had my 315/70/17 MTZ.

Here's the specs from the website.
