36-12.50-15 TSL Bias on MT classic II 15x8

At 18 psi 35" under the load of my XJ
At 28 psi 35.25" under the load of my XJ

I measured mine by putting a level on the tread and measuring from there to the ground....

I run between 30 and 33. Google tire chalk test for info on how to find optimum pressure

Anyone else have actual 37" tire specs. I like the KM2s, we have 33" KM2s on our TJ back home. Should get my GF to measure them for me so I can post on here about them. Would like a well perfoming M/T with reasonable road noise that actually gets up to the 37" tire height. Thought about just going up in KM2 size but do not know that I want the extra inch of width. PLan on running flat fenders with my RK 3.5 so I should have plenty of room.

This may be a dumb question.
How much does the width of the wheel have to do with the height?
Would a 37" tire be taller on a 8.5" or 9" wheel? I think the answer would be the wider the wheel the short the overall height.
