245/60/14 = 25.6"

205/70/14 = 25.4"

205/60/14 = 23.7"

185/70/14 = 24.3"

185/60/14 = 22.7"

a tire such as 275/40-17 means:
275 = tire width = 275mm
40 = sidewall size in % = 40% of width = 275mm x40% = 110mm = 4.33"
17 = rim size in inches = 17"

overall diameter = rim size + 2 sidewalls (bottom + top) = 17" + 2x 4.33" = 17+8.66 = 25.66"

Now you can do it for any size.
p.s.: 1" = 25.4mm
