1" of contact patch width.
Now, there may also be differences in compounds and spring rates depending on what you are looking at as well.
The 8.00 is an older tire (or spec tire of diff. compound.) The 9.00 is the current open comp. tire.

The 9.00 is wider as Brian said above. The 8.00 was last made in 2010 i believe it was, as a pink. The 2009 tire was a thin blue.
