morning all, there is a half inch, maybe an inch, tyre flange, this is why your measurments are out. the tyre sits on this. you need to measure from inside the flange (spoke to spoke) if your gonna get any sort of realistic measurment. if you measure the profile of the tyre, it will not be accurate, however, you will get a good idea of the overall diameter.:agree:

You haven't said what the width of the tyre is so nobody will be able to work it out. Profile is a ratio of the width.
