Default Re: H2 rockstars 20" fitting in garage

You could also try finding out the real, or actual, size of the tires. Most tires are not the size advertised, but they will show this on their website. I remember doing some research a while back for another truck, and was surprised to find that most tires were smaller than advertised, sometimes by an inch.

I believe manufacturers call it the "overall diameter".

Talking Re: H2 rockstars 20" fitting in garage

also, remember that even if the new tires are taller by an inch or so, you only gain half that in actual ride height. if its that tight of a fit, you could always take a belt sander to your garage door header. lol

Garages who needs them, there over rated. try putting a H2 in a garage in Germany, you would have to put 12in rims on it and you might fit the height but then you aint making the width.
