Re: How Tall?
My BFG's measure pretty close to spec for 'height'. However height is
measured with no vehicle sitting on the tire making that flat spot....
Or I can measure it side to side with the vehicle sitting on it and get
the 'length' of the tire which is closer to spec.

Re: How Tall?
Talk to any woman about this. Males usually add an inch or two to any
length measurement. Some quote a lot more. ;^)
