Privacy statement: this app does NOT have any annoying ads and doesNOT access any personal data on your device. There are many goodtire calculator apps so why choose this one? Most other tire appsallow you to enter two different tire sizes and then provide adetailed numerical comparison of their total diameters etc.TireCalc Pro takes a different approach - one that is more suitedto the real-world scenario of having existing tires mounted on avehicle but then wanting to replace the wheels using rims and tiresthat have different dimensions while preserving the same overalldiameter as the existing wheels. TireCalc Pro makes this easy by: -rapid input of the existing tire size using 'spinner-dials' ratherthan using keyboard entry; - instantly providing a list ofalternative tire sizes that provide a good match the existingtire's overall diameter; - the list of alternative sizes can befiltered down by specifying a desired rim size and/or maximumallowed difference in diameter (expressed as a percentage): this'difference percentage' equals the resulting speedometer error. -Again, the selection of preferred rim size and maximum differenceis made easy using convenient spinner-dials rather than byold-fashioned text input. TireCalc Pro also provides additionalpages that explain everything you need to know when shopping fornew tires: - explanation of sidewall markings (e.g. 245 / 45 / ZR17etc); - definition of 'aspect ratio'; - math formula used tocalculate the overall wheel diameter; - table of speed-rating codeletters; - table of maximum load indices.
