I'm not sure how to easily measure that since the tire is obviously curved. Hmmmm

That should work, but you might have measure them all mounted.

Yea. It was announced during the banquet that he would be leaving GMD. He was looking for a more steady income.

On what rim sizes? I can get the b-stones on a 4.5&5"rim

hmm... maybe off the rim? we can talk it through when I figure out a good time to show you the transmission pieces in person

Off the rim won't tell you much. Tires are all wacky shapes without the air in em.

A tire might be 165 off the rim, but if you put it on a 4.5" rim ( for example) the sides could be pulled in to 162. Adversely on 5" rim it could be pulled out to 167.
This of course is all just a theory I cooked up.

Yeah, I'm sure it'll vary a little bit, but not a whole lot.
