my 29.5 10's measure 30.5-31 but the 12's measure like 28.5 or so not quite exact but i can't actually say weather or not this is on all of the outlaws
Different size rims?
no hes got 12 in rims
Different widths? Thats how it goes with trucks.
the rim will make no diff in the tire height...
maybe some people run more air than others
outlaws are not supposed to have a lot of air in them
i have 28's and my buddy has 29.5's but his stand a good 3 inches taller than mine b/c he runs a lot more air in them than i do

they will expand to be really big if u put a lot of air in them.... when i got mine mounted on the rims the tire shop put so much air in the tire i had to let some out just to fit it in my finder
If the rim is wide the tire will be shorter if the rim is narrow the tire will be taller. PSI will make a difference too, are they after market wheels or stock?
wat big daddy big foot is right and he has 12x7 rims and he has a lil over 20 psi in the tires
WOW 20psi? Why?
because it will float tons better i have 15 in mine and i have a buddy tat has bi/tri claws and he puts 40 in his
outlaws are not supposed to have a high PSI... 20 is WAY TOO HIGH.

call highlifter... they will tell u the same thing
wel no ttireis supposed to have that much but as long its a 6 ply u r usually fine hoow much do yall run
when you get tires put on rims buy a tire center check your tire pressure before you ride on them. cuz we had to have a plug put in our stock tires and they filled them to 35 psi....

i tryed 20 PSI in a 4wheeler tire before, it made the tire about 2" taller too. all i can say is DO NOT speed with that much PSI, i was going about 25 MPH and mine poped and blew the fender apart this was on my old 2wd 300 mudder

i usually run about 8 psi in my outlaw MST's. i've seen guys with outlaws run 3-4 psi's in them.
The 28x10.5x12 is 3/4" to 1" smaller than the 12.5 and the 9.5. I ran into this problem myself. HL is aware of the problem. They said it has to do with the mold for the tire. HL said if you take them and fill them up with 10-15 lbs of air and sit them in the sun they should stretch. I will let you know if it works. I will be trying it tommorow.
