I’ve forwarded this to Marc Blackman - expect a phone call. ?
No worries we were doing a long term experiment to see how well the 303 would clean up a dirty engine cover. :rolleyes:? Besides I have his personal cell number and I think he'd get a good laugh out of this. lol

The 285 and the 265 have the same height. The first three digits are the width of the tire. The 70 is the height.
Gonna call you out on that John…they are different heights.

Yes, the first three digits are the width, but the 70 is the percentage of the width that makes up the height of the sidewall.

70% of 285mm = 70% of 11.22“ = 7.854” of sidewall

bottom sidewall + wheel + top sidewall = height (diameter)

7.854 + 17 + 7.854 = 32.7

Wow. This is weird. I had typed all of that out, backspaced it because I realized I was wrong because of ASPECT RATIO! But it keeps appearing in the the box where you are supposed to type your message in a thread!

ETA: I just found where it added it into a post where I was quoting something else. Very weird. I have cleaned it up.
