370mm, outer edge of rim to outer edge of rim.
380mm is the standard size.

ive never quite understood all this "smaller or bigger version" stuff. does 10mm really make that much difference? ive got a bigger one and ive got or received no complaints!

The smaller one feels vastly different. Far chunkier.

No, that's why they're referred to as the smaller and larger diameter

I'm confused now. The smaller version has a diameter of 370mm and the larger one is 385mm

you said it feels chunkier so i asked if the rim diameter (i.e. the bit you hold in you hand) was different, or is it "the same thickness".

Aaah! No I think it's the same thickness. It's just the general feel of the wheel is much chunky, it's amazing the difference 15mm makes!
