Default 65*26mm wheels?

I've had my touring car for over a month now while still new to the hobby of R/C cars I still know enough to know this is a strange wheel measurement (65*26mm) I'm guessing the numner 65 is the outside diameter and the 26 is the width of the tire ist self I've been looking high and low to find a suitable dish wheel with or without the tires mounted already I would prefer mounted though I guess either way would be fine.
I'm in need of being able to mount rubber tires.
with the outside diameter being 65mm would I be right in the thought that the wheel diameter should be 24mm with no tires mounted or an I way off here?

Im new to onroad & still learnin too so.....
does the 65 have a degree symbol after it ? if it is, I think it means its a hard compound tire.
The higher deg. number the harder the tire compound, I just bought a set of tires that were 28 deg. (pretty soft)
Maby somone that knows for sure can help us both out!

No I think the 65 must stand for the outside diameter with the tire mounted thats the best that I can get at all there is after the #65 is a(*) symbal I know the 26 is the general width of the rim in question, so I'm assumming I'll want a 24mm in diameter rim I'll have to dig my calipers out and see

Check tower's "inventory closeout" section, I bought a set of 4 wheels and mounted (not glued) tires for $10.99
