Yeah the math comes out to 11.22" wide. Makes sense for a little give or take for each manufacturer.

Sierra Tango--I think you should ask for more info like AK4Dave gave, like specifically what the different tire brands you're looking at actually measure vs. what their paper dimensions are. Might help you to narrow it down.

Good point. I'm trying to decide between the BFG KM2s or the TA/KOs, It's just going to depend on what I think I need by the time I've decided to buy.

You'll be able to find the real dimensions on those tires here. There's a lot of members running them. Good lick with the decision!
