Stock 33s and 35s on;y have .5" height difference, when measured at the axle.

Nothing to see in this thread.

Did I say the difference was at the axle?
First up my math error. I meant to say 1” difference.

With tire change of the axle goes up an inch so does the rest of the vehicle. This isn’ hard.

You’re also splitting hairs over stock vehicle variables. Silly.

If he's on 33 and you are 35's you would only see 1" height difference max. 1" from the center of the wheel down to the ground, the other inch is from the center of wheel to top of tire.
While this is true and should be considered, the stock Sahara isn't on 33" tires (only the Rubicon is.) The Sahara and stock Sport would be closer to a 31" tire which should be a 2" difference. Though really, any 35" tires I see are slightly less than 35 and 31s are often slightly larger than 31.

There are variables like tire PSI, temperature, weight of gear in the vehicle (and thus the weight of the vehicle.) and of course the spring-rate on a Sahara is different (softer) than a Sport.
