Measured section widths and diameters (inches)

 A     B    C    D    E    F   G    H

 

A = Tire Diameter.

B = Loaded Vertical Radius measured at maximum pressure on "best" wheel
width.

C = Increase (+) decrease (-) in ride height.

D = Revolutions per mile as calculated. 

Does not take into account slippage of about 3 percent at freeway cruise. 

Experienced revolutions are about 103% of calculated. Slippage increases
with road horsepower applied.

E = Tread width.

F = Patch area.

G = Increase in patch area over 590H15 Dunlop Roadspeeds.

H = Tire description.

 

Best.
