REFLECTOR: Tire diameter

[Jim Agnew]

I can tell you that Goodyear Flight Custom III 600 x 6 tires are about 1" larger in diameter than the 600 x 6 Condor tires that I replaced.  You have a basic flat tread like the Condors where the Goodyear have a rounded profile.  Better tires also tend to have more tread so that may make a difference.  The tire diameter can also change with altitude and temperature so there are a number of variables especially if you make the wheel wells a tight fit.
