i'm talking about the dunlop radial mud rover 33x12.5 and 35x12.5, but it may apply to tires in general. i was wondering if the tread blocks are actually larger on the bigger tires or if there are just more of the same size. i'm guessing just a longer "strip" of same-sized tread. seems like making a whole different size would not be cost-effective. however, if the 35s have bigger stronger tread accompanied by bigger easy-clearing voids, then the 35s could have more benefit than just looks.
