Apologies if this has been asked before. Has anyone a chart of tyre dimensions? What is the overall diameter of a 205-70-15, and a 195-80-15? It would help compare one tyre with another and its effect on gearing.

Just use an online tyre calculator
www.etyres.co.uk/tyre-size-calculator.htm
Bear in mind most tyres are actually slightly bigger than the calculator shows, something to do with "rolling radius" a tyre dealer was trying to warn me that his 31" tyres came in at 33" inches in reality.

yes, we run 215x80r 15's and in reality, our diamond backs are closer to 30" than the 28" they should be ... 19mm treablocks were to blame !!
