How to convert 345 85R16 to inches?

First of all, we need to divide 345 mm (width) by 25.4 (mm to inch conversion), which will give us a width of 13.6″. Then, 85% of the 13.6″ will result in 11.5″ sidewall.

To get the total height or tire diameter, we need to sum the 16″ rim diameter with two of the sidewall heights. It will result in a 39″ total tire diameter (or height).
