Your tyre/tire diameter fluctuates anyway presumably with pressure changes, thermal changes and tread wear over time.

What's the tread depth on new tyres/tires? Is it about 10mm and down to 3mm when worn, so you've got a 7mm variance over the life of the rubber anyway.
Agree!

And, tires by different manufacturers with the same specifications will have slightly different widths and diameters. Don't sweat the small differences.
