380x150-5 tires: actual size?

Anyone measure the actual diameter, and more importantly, have an estimate on diameter when they 'grow' while spinning at 60-70 mph? I've already mounted my wheel pants on my -7, based on ~1" clearance on top for regular 5.00-5's. I used my kit 5.00-5's to replace my -4's tires this annual, so I need to buy replacements for the -7. Will I have to raise the pants for the 380x15-5's?

Oh yeah; bonus question: How much more do they weigh?

Thanks,

Charlie
 
Charlie,

You will most likely need to raise the wheel pants for the bigger tires.

My 380x150-5 are retreads and each weighed 4 lb 10.6 oz more than new 500x5 6ply Air Hawk (from vans).

I love my tires and would do it again.

PS Send me your email address and I will send pictures of the tires showing the relative size difference. For some reason I can no longer post pictures here.
