My Micheldever Tyre Guide says:
OEM CA67 185r15 diameter 675mm 225/45x18 675mm
Nubodi 205/70r15 diameter 668mm 235/40x18 665mm
That probably accounts for the 195/65x15s on my Z300S looking "small" to some people at 655mm. Chosen more to match the diameter of the Z3 255/40x17 and the skinny 5" E-Type Jag rims.
