Could be you are thinking different driving conditions. A tyre may
indeed fit with plenty of room for pavment driving and rub against
something under extreme articulation.
I don't know about them funny coiler suspensions but when leafrts
articulate the top of the tyre swings outwards on downward articulation
and inwords during upper articulation. You need plenty of side top side
space inside the wings.
Also series rear suspensions dance around a lot. The tyres go forwards
and rearwards as well as tipping innwards and outwards and sometimes one
side will get a little ahead of the other.
On the other hand a SUV fully outfitted for Mall Terrain can afford
larger flashier tyres because they do not undergo extream articulation.
What fits depends upon where and how you drive.
