Mike Melton reviews three Toyo RT Pro tire sizes and finds the 17-inch and 20-inch models differ by about an inch in height. The RT Pro blends all-terrain and mud-terrain characteristics for aggressive off-road performance, though it trades some wet traction for that capability.

Just today so far, we got 3 sets of these Toyo RT Pros going out. So if you've never seen this tire before, let's go over it. Now first, let me show you the difference— size difference, okay? All right, this one here is a 38x11.50R17. This one here is a 35x12.50R20. This one here is a 35x11.50R20. Now look at the size height from there. Look at the size height from there. That's crazy, right? It's only supposed to be 4 inches. That's a little bit more. That's more than, more than an inch. So if you ain't familiar with the Toyo RT Pro, this is one of their newest tires out. Everybody so far is loving this tire. It's really aggressive on the sidewall. Now this tire is a hybrid tire. It's between the, uh, all-terrain and a mud terrain tire. Now if you're looking for wet traction, stay— stick with an all-terrain. The reason being is because when you go to an RT or MT, you do lose wet traction. Now a lot of people ask, how loud are these things? They're actually pretty quiet for an RT tire, but you ain't buying these damn things to be quiet. You're buying these things for the look and the performance, what you're trying to do with them, whether they just look good on the road or perform off-road.
