2000 expedition tire height?

hello, I just bought a 2000 expedition xlt. It has 20" wheels and tires, could someone please tell me how tall the factory tire measures? I wanna make sure the 20"s are the same overall size. thanks.

It depends a bit on whether you have the XLT or the EB but it is roughly 30" AFAIK.

my xlt has 31 inch stock, and ive gone up to 33 inch with no rub. You go over 33 inch and you're screwed... (stock suspension).

Does your truck still have the original spare up underneath? If so, just drop it down and roll it up next to your 20's to see the difference visually.
It's kinda hard to compare a tire's OD by calcualting the width/ratio/rim size since sizes vary so much from different manufacturers. You really need to do a side by side comparison or do the "roll-out" method to be certain.

Right, one tire company's 265/70-17 is not necessarily the exact same diameter as another. BTW, a lot of tire companys post tire specs on their website, including diameter.
