I've been looking at some supercross bikes lately (norco 125&250, P1, P2, Le Toy) ext, and noticed some had a 24" wheel with doublewides in rear, and 26" up front. My question is: is the outside diameter of the tire on the 24" the same as the 26" ?

The 24's are much higher profile which is why i am wondering.
