How the calculation works

Diameter in mm = rim diameter in inches × 25.4 + 2 × width × aspect ratio/100. The diameter ratio gives the speed correction.

Inputs

  • Original width, mm
  • Original aspect ratio, %
  • Original rim, inches
  • New width, mm
  • New aspect ratio, %
  • New rim, inches
  • Indicated speed, km/h

Calculation details

205/55 R16 means 205 mm width, a 55% aspect ratio, and a 16-inch rim.

Geometric similarity does not establish compatibility: check manufacturer approval, rim width, load rating, and clearance.
