So what about the original question: How can I find out the actual tread width of a tire without physically measuring it myself?
You really can't, there are just too many variables. Rim widths, air pressure, tread design, they all play a part in the actual footprint of the tire. If the listed widths aren't accurate enough it's time to bust out your measuring tape.
