One revolution of the wheel has to equal one passage of the tire's

Talk of "effective radius" is not relevant.


So are saying the circumference remains constant, hence the rpm remains
constant, hence iTPMS cannot work?


Yup, he is (obviously), but he's a fanatic Brexiteer so since when has
logic / fact / reason influenced his thinking. ;-)
