195 / 25.4 * 0.75 * 2 + 14 is how you calculate it if you weren't sure.

25.5" Diameter

On a similar note, does anyone know of a more offroad vehicle friendly calculator that spits out RPMs at different increments like this one:

That one works, but converting 42" tires makes me think I'm screwing something up.
