sidewall_mm=width_mm*(aspect_pct/100); diameter_in=rim_in+2*sidewall_mm/25.4; diameter_mm=diameter_in*25.4

How to use this estimate

Estimate overall tire diameter from metric size code (section width, aspect ratio, rim). How it works: sidewall_mm=width_mm*(aspect_pct/100); diameter_in=rim_in+2*sidewall_mm/25.4; diameter_mm=diameter_in*25.4. Out of scope: load index / speed rating; vehicle clearance; OEM fitment approval; TPMS or pressure advice. This is an approximate screening estimate, not a substitute for manufacturer charts or a full engineering design. Does not certify code compliance; confirm manufacturer data where it applies.
