Tire diameter
Hi group,
Tire diameter is easy:
td = ((tire width*aspect ratio*2) / 2540) + wheel dia in inches
tire width in mm
2540 changes mm & ar to inches
stock tire 205x60-15 td = ((205*60*2) / 2540) + 15 = 24.685 inches
circumference = td * pi 77.55
circ (in feet) = circumference / 12 6.4625
wheel revolution/ mile = 5280 / circ 817.021
anybody with programming abilities can make a small program in qbasic, c
or whatever to automatically check out any tire size, and how that
tire/wheel combo will be to stock.
