240 tire diameter?????

[MADDOGC5]

First, yes I have used the search button but could not find an answer to my question. Does anyone know the diameter (height) of the stock tire as compared to the 240 wide tire kit? Which one is taller? Thanks MADDOG

I have no Clue on the 240 because you will need to check the manufacturers site for the exact Diameter.
But the Stock Dunlop Qualifier 150/90-15 K525 Diameter is 25.57":

The Bridgestone Exedra Max I have now is 25.7874" (655 mm):

So it varies from one manufacturer and tire to the next.

You are talking about a Gen 2, correct?

It of course depends on which tire you choose but the diameter will be very close to stock.

You may want to ask Gen2 questions here: StarVmax.com. The site is mostly Gen 2 Vmax owners.

Jfeagins' wife, has a 240 on her gen 2. He might know the answer.

You can use this calculator to determine the difference.

You can see in this example how close they would be........most 240 tires have a 40mm sidewall as opposed to the stock 50mm.




Keep in mind the 240 will effect turning and HP to the ground both in a negative way. Looks great though.
