Not exactly.

Closer to the truth is that one needs to measure their rims beforehand. There are many different designs of wheel. Steel versus aluminum have vastly different designs. A rule of thumb that seems to work at 14" may be crap at 19".

Same for the pizza trays. They're sold at 15", but you measured them at 14 7/8".

Everything about these sorts of projects is custom. Expect nothing to be exactly what it says it is, until you measure it yourself.
