It's the sidewall to tire diameter ratio which is usually a better indicator.... Unless it's a full-size pickup with a 6" lift, then there's no doubt that bedtime fun is going to be disappointing, whatever tire it's got on it.
I’ll run this by her and see what she thinks. I had a lifted F250 crew cab 4x4 to tow our quad trailer so I probably won’t like her answer.

Not a terrible photshop job. Had me looking closer after I dried the tears from my eyes.
My cousin went with me on a trip to White Rim. He showed up at my house in a Chevy Spark so for the rest of the trip we were joking about where the Spark would or wouldn't go and what tires would fit on it with some modification.

Retired from Corrections....I have stories.
If it was subjective then apps like TOR wouldn't have subjective ratings for each that get modified based on input from those that have done the trails.



The rules for chess are objective. Arbitrary, but very much objective. The measured weight of my JLURD is objective.

Assessing the difficultly of a trail is very much subjective. Two people doing the same trail in the same vehicle can have highly varying perspectives of its difficulty.
This is so true. The subjective trail rating is alive and well. Black Bear Pass is rated as a 5-6 level trail on the Jeep BOH app. You can literally drive in in 2wd. If you can successful park your Jeep in a parking lot, you should be able to wheel this trail as long as heights don't bother you. There is one spot that is off chamber then a couple switch backs that are a little tight. Yet if you have not wheeled on shelf road with huge drop offs, it can be intimidating.

What's the difference between a 4x4 and a rental car?

The rental car will make it over the obstacle.

I was surprised by TOTW in Moab. 35's and a lift are barely adequate to wheel it without any hard scraping or damage. Coming down is much harder than going up because of the ledges/shelves.
