The aspect ratio is the tires profile. For instance, a tire with a 60 aspect ratio means that the tires hight from tread to rim is 60% of the tires nominal width. The lower the aspect ratio # the wider the tire.

Depends on the aspect ratio of the tire.

For all practical purposes they are the same height. I would have to know the aspect ratio of both tires to answer the question.
