Tire measuring for edge input.

How do you measure your tire in inches. From the ground to the top of the tire. I have 275/60 R20.

Doesn't the Edge want the circumference (in mm)? Not sure, just remembering other posts.

If so, the unloaded circumference is 2699mm. 3% squish is 2618; 4% is 2591; and 5% is 2564.

To calculate circumference in mm when height in inches is known:

Height x 25.4 x 3.14

33 x 25.4 x 3.14 = 2632

Close enough for government work.
