...when you change the diameter by 2" you only change the radius by 1". The radius in this case is measured from the center of the hub to the perimeter of the tire.

Of course this all depends on the actual measurements of the inflated tire...not all 35s measure 35 and not all 37s measure 37...yada yada yada.

FYI...when measuring my height I always measure in the rear. Even though my truck's leveled (verified by measurements at the front and rear of the rock sliders) the roof seems to have rake of it's own. I'm pretty sure that I measured a 3/4" difference on my GOBI from front to back.

If you've got 3" of clearance now, at the rear, I think you'd still fit with something like a BFG 37 and keys.
