hi Ben, You included only one sidewall thickness ie 165*0.75+13*25.4=454mm.
for the 13, 165*0.75*2+13*25.4=577.7mm for the 15, 195*0.5*2+15*25.4= 576mm, or 0.3% diff But as Terry pointed out, I have been told the wrong standard tyre size :( which is more like 185/82R13 if it existed Thanks Andrew > 165/75/r13 = 454mm total diameter > 195/50/r15 = 478.5mm total diameter > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Andrew Greenbury" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Sunday, March 24, 2002 4:32 PM > Subject: RE: TRX Wheels > > > > Hi Terry, > > > > I was under the impression that 195/50 R15s were close to the > > stock 1600 tyres?
