i used 265/50/15 in the formulas (its what i run on my stang) which end up with a tire diameter of 25.4 inches.
but like i said...the size of your tire drasticaly affects the gear ratio. and therefore should not be overlooked when a gear swap is wanted for example
if you run 265/50/15 @65mph running 3200rpm you are running 3.73s but if you run 255/40/15 @65mph running 3200rpm you are running 3.36s
