And finally, to figure the tire diameter given tire size 265/75R16 use the following:
(2 * (265 * .75)) / 25.4 + 16
The sidewall height is 75% of the tread width of 265 mm and the 25.4 converts from mm to inches. Two times the sidewall height plus the diameter of the rim gets you the overall tire diameter.
