It can be rather hard to measure a tire so the most accurate way to find the overall diameter which is used to determine the correct spare tire cover would be with a bit of calculations. I have attached these calculations for you in the form of a photo. Don't forget to take the section height and multiply by two, then add the diameter of the wheel. This will then be used to find the correct spare tire cover which I have attached a list of for you.
If you do not feel like doing the calculations then please provide me with your full tire size and I would be happy to do them for you.
