Are you talking about 185 and 195 tires with the same aspect ratio (same brand/model tire)? If so, the difference in the radius is only 5/16" john Yes, 185 vs. 195, same brand, same aspect ratio (which for these tires is 82%). Ok, I was off by 1/8", 5/8" instead of 3/4". The difference is in the diameter, which is 2 x radius. mcneely -- David McNeely
