Here is a chart created to show equivalent metric sizes that correspond to the older bias ply tire standard. Accuracy may slightly vary with the conversion. The tire diameter is the important issue regarding speedometer reading to vehicle speed when switching tires. There is also an excellent graphic tire size calculator showing two different tires and their comparison at Tire size calculator, compliments of the Miata.net website. You can see the width and height of two tires against each other.
