Brain storming???

Just looked at your figures.

You need 4 inches. Your tires are around 9 inches high off the rims. It seems to me that you did not let enough air out to only gain 2 inches.

We run the 9.00 both CMP and Dodges at around 12 psi on the beach sand which I am sure drops them well past 2 inches. Just to get in the door you could drop to 5 psi (just enough to not have the rims actually riding directly on the sidewalls) and I am sure this will give you your 4 inches plus. Pump up or put the vehicle on jacks once inside. You are not going to damage the tire in a couple of vehicle lengths and certainly won't be rolling it off the rim with a tube as you could do with tubeless tires.

Just dropped my 9.00-16 Dodge front tire to 5psi and it fell slightly over 6 inches.
