2. ISO 5775 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_5775

   The inner width of the rim on which the tire is mounted should be about 65% of the tire's nominal section width for tires smaller than 30 mm and 55% for those larger. The section height of a tire is usually identical to its section width (for tires less than 28 mm, 2.5 mm have to be added to the width to get the height).

   To take a common example, 195/55R16 would mean that the nominal width of the tire is approximately 195 mm at the widest point, the height of the side-wall of the tire is 55% of the width (107 mm in this example) and that the tire fits 16-inch-diameter (410 mm) rims. The code gives a direct calculation of the theoretical diameter of the tire.

   Width (effective) A separation distance between opposed rim flanges. The flange-to-flange width of a rim should be a minimum of three-quarters of the tire section width. And the maximum rim width should be equal to the width of the tire tread. Type Depends on the type of vehicle and tire. There are various rim profiles, as well as several rim ...

6. Plus sizing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plus_sizing

   Plus sizing is the practice of replacing an automotive wheel with one of a larger diameter fitted with a new tire of lower aspect ratio so that the new tire has close to the same diameter and circumference as the original tire to minimize any changes in speedometer accuracy, torque and traction control, while reducing sidewall flex and (generally) increasing cornering ability.

7. 29er (bicycle) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/29er_(bicycle)

   A tire with a tread width of less than 2.0 in (51 mm) in width is sometimes considered a cyclocross tire by 29″ enthusiasts, even though in cyclocross any tire wider than 1.5 in (38 mm) is not a cyclocross tire. Although they are both intended for off-road use, and typically use a 622 mm rim, cyclocross bikes and 29″ wheeled MTBs differ in ...
