I have the sizes for the original zak slicks.
they are listed as
fronts 10.0/225x16
rears 12.5/27.5x19
I just need to work out the overall diameter of the tyre.
at first I thought the 27.5 number meant 27.5" total diameter but in that case wtf does the 225 number mean for the fronts ? if its section height in mm its 9"
lol

both width numbers seem to be in inches, and therefore 225 should mean 22.5 inch outer diameter
If you get a side view of a car with these tyres, you can easily compare the size of the fronts and rears.
