So there seem to be two reasons people are interested in tire width, for race tires and for running as wide a tire as they can. With the variation in rim widths, it seems like the most reliable way to compare tire widths is by laying it flat and measuring bead to bead. That way when the user has a tire or two to compare, they can predict the tire width on their wheel.
For instance, three un mounted tires I have sitting around are:
Michelin pro light sc 20mm - 57mm
Michelin pro 3 race 23mm - 63mm
Ksyrium elite 25mm - 68mm
Anyone else interested in contributing to such a list? If people are, I could try and track the thread and put all the information in one post.
