PS- Does anyone know if a tire becomes somewhat shorter as it's put on a wider wheel? For instance - will a 235 on an 8.5" wheel be a bit shorter than it would be on a 7.5 incher, thus slightly changing the published diameter of the tire? It seems to make sense, and that if you took a tire and began pulling the beads slowly apart, that the tire would get a bit shorter. If this is indeed the case, then I might end up with the same tire diameter with a 235 on an 8.5 as I would with a 225 on a 7.5. (???????????) Nuff fer now.
