Rolling diameters (wheels and tyres)

ElusiveStranger

Can someone please tell me:

1/ Standard T2 (Bay) wheel diameter (I think it's 25")
2/ Impreza wheel diameter

Both including standard fitment tyres

Cheers

Hi

Type 2 with standard 185 14 should be 25.7" I do not know about the Impreza, but if you know what the standard tyre size is I could tell you.

If you can find out the tyre sizes then this is a useful tool to use.

Thanks guys.

Just looked on blackcircles.com and an Impreza is 17" 215 45

I'm checking my VSS signal to see the difference. If I'm correct it appears there's only 5% difference in rolling diameters between a bus & Impreza.
Next to SFA on a Legacy to Bus! (0.4" per rev)
