Tire height is a function of width on p-metric series tires. For example a 275/40R17 has a section width (fattest part of tire) of 275mm, sidewall hieght is 40% of section width, R designates Radial tire (like anyone would put bias ply on a street car these days????) and this tire fits a 17 inch rim. Do the math and you can figger out hieght.
