The actual size is 315/75/16 Mickey Thompson MTX.I have had BFG, Wranglers, Dunlop, Brigstone All terrains ,Mud terrains etc... but these tires are by far one of the most quiet tires I have ever owned. 35" that is.If I had to compare, I would say they compare to BFG All terrains. Not to say the others were not good tires they all have their good and bad points. I don't know how they will hold up in the long run time will tell. They ride smooth as glass! My advice is to do research. Ask questions and decide what tires work best for you. Keep in mind that these or any other 35" tire is not going to look that massive because of the size of the vehicle. With a 4" lift or so it would look more impressive. 35's as you can see fill in the wheelwells and give a stockier stance.
I'm sure as the aftermarket provdes lifts you will see some pretty triked out H3's. All it takes is time and money and I'm running short on both.<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content">Originally posted by goose:

Are you planning to put those tires and rims on an H3? An H3 is six lug and the set you are showing is an 8 lug? Just checking.Perhaps your intent was to purchase a new set of rims or are you going to mount them on stock rims as i did? Keep in mind the offset and width of the rim may make a difference when turning lock to lock.
Good looking set though.<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content">Originally posted by kacyk:
I went to http://www.1010tires.com and the measurement of yours and my tires (diameter & width) are almost the same. Given that, I'm going to try at least if we do decide to get the H3. It's odd but visually my set looks larger.

The ones that I have on are as close as I would want to mount on there without a lift.I think that a true 35" tire would have to be close to what you would call a 37".A 37" tire would probably measure close to a 35" such as a BFG. That I know would not fit. I'm not a tire expert by no means,but I don't know of anyone that makes a "true" 35" tire.
Keep in mind the bigger the tire and wheels the more weight and rolling mass you have to contend with as well.
I have about 2500 miles on my tires right now and still love them!

There's a lot of reference to "35's" but will a true 35/12.50-18 M/T fit without a lift? </div></BLOCKQUOTE> </div></BLOCKQUOTE> </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Dude aweso H3, best I've seen. I personally think 315's (35's) on H3 looks great without lift, in fact lifting it would take way the great center of gravity these H's have especially with the 35's.

Take it wheeling and show us!

Looks good! How many turns did you take the torsion bars up to make them fit? Also, how close do they get at full lock left and right?

That tire looks quite a bit wider than the stock one.

Unfortunately I do know that the wheels won't fit. However, it will give me the opportunity to get Lexani's again. These were the Lexani's on our first H2.

I adjusted it aprox 5 turns.From lock to lock you have aprox 1.5 inches from hitting the swaybar or the A arm. there is plenty of room. The guy that mounted the tires was surprised as well. When looking at them before they were mounted he said that they wouldn't fit.Like I said he was surprised.Oh when adjusted to 1.5 inches measure under the front fender then the back. There should be aprox 1" difference. Keep in mind 35's will fit without cranking the bars.I just wanted to get the nose up a little. Sacrificed a little in the ride department but its something I can live with.They clear even with the mud flaps on.<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content">Originally posted by timgco:
