Mjk Tyre Selector

[shadow_rusty 41]

Updated again...

 

Changed out 'step height' for 'step diameter' as step height was an unnecessary manual calculation...

[shadow_rusty 41]

Updated again...

 

 

Added accuracy percentage to the google sheets version, and fixed a small bug in the lookup coding.

 

 

 

 

Oh, and as always, if there is a change / feature that you would like to see, please feel free to ask.

Or maybe you could use 'Hotlinks for forums' 2 lines below and then the pic would show on the page without needing to 'click' on it to see it, although the pic would probably need to be edited so it was no more than 800 wide so it would fit on the page, unless the new forum can handle larger photos now.

Yes you could hotlink however that comes with some issues, the most being the other servers bandwidth. Doing the way I highlighted is better etiquette.

Hotlinking from Wikipedia

Hotlinking is an internet term. It means displaying an image on a website by linking to the website hosting the image. The link gets the source data of the picture each time it is needed.

This avoids having the image on every website which uses it. So, a website owner uses a link to the picture such as http://example.com/picture.jpg

When the hotlinking website is loaded, the image is loaded from the original website, which uses its bandwidth, so it costs the hotlinked website money. For this reason many website owners use .htaccess files to prevent hotlinking. In some cases website owners use the .htaccess file to replace any hotlinked images with an offensive image to deter any other website owners from hotlinking.

The original image may be owned by the original website. It might be wrong to make a copy of the original image file for use on a different web page, without being careful to get proper permission.

Hotlinking can also be used for file types other than images, including documents and videos.

Thanks Johnno

Unfortunately, the new catalogs don't have dimensions anymore...
Thankfully, there are only about 4 tyres that I don't have the data for.

how do you relate the code ,eg 4807 to a size

if i want a size to fit my rims then how do i know which code it relates to

[Johnno 22]

Hi mate, here are the measurements that you require to buy tyres for your wheels/rims

You will be best to use Vernier Calipers

Hi Crusty

Armchair Racer still show MJK dimensions on their site. The easiest way to search for a tyre there is the part no in the search function and you will see it

i see/know this ,but what i am after is a chart to reference by

eg ,paulgauge tyres have a code  like 20125

20 = outer diameter

12 = width

5 = step width

so it is easy to know what tyres you want

what i want is a chart to tell me what mjk size tyres = what code number

is that too hard for mjk to do

 

[gref 27]

anyone know off the top of their head which tyre fits NSR Mosler rim?

[mattcrackers 92]

Pretty sure the 4205's fit.
