Hi Dual Quad that truck looks to me like it has way more than 1" diff in height from front to back.

..Here is how I figured it out. Let me know if I missed something.
275mm=10.82in tread width x 60%= 6.49in. Therefore 6.49(ground to rim)+6.49(top of tire down to rim)+15.00rim diameter = 27.98in.Rear tire

235mm=9.25in tread width x 60%= 5.55in. Using same formula as above 5.55 + 5.55 +15.00 = 26.1in front tire............... 27.98-26.1 = 1.88.. I've always figured it like this and I use .03937 x the tread width for my inch measurement.
