Go to their site and get the rolling diameter for the same size tire, just a 512 vs 912. You'll see they're within .1" of each other heightwise and section width.

Please stop.
You don't know what you're talking about.
Yes, aspect ratios are aspect ratios, but there is a VERIFIABLE variance among tire manufacturers.
For example a 255/35/18 Falken FK452 wont rub at all on the rear of my car, BUT a 255/35/18 Hankook Ventus V12 will rub quite a bit. There's more to that then just one tire "looking" wider or more narrow than the other. Get real....
