That is 29.1 inches tall in front and 30.7 inches tall in back. You CANNOT go any bigger. Really. This worked out very well for me for several years. Mine is now a fair weather friend, so no more snow runs....

that will work, i was talking about dragcitys car,just look too big but thats just my .02.
If they are the run flat models you may have a hard time finding someone who will mount them w/o a tire pressure monitoring system. Of course if they don't know or notice they are run flats.....

The reason for the tall tires is ground clearance. Sometimes. We get a lot of snow here in Buffalo. It werked very well for me. I have a job that puts me all over western ny and I have never been stuck or stranded. By all means, do as you will.
