The 1270 is half of 2540. There are 25.4 mm to an inch. Since I don't treat the aspect ratio as a percentage, I make up for it in the conversion factor. Also, since dividing by 2540 would give you the sidewall height, I divide it by 2 to get 2 times the sidewall height. Then you just add that to the wheel height.
