Could you tell me what the overall diameter is as I need it to be the same diameter as my 21" tyres.

The tyre size is on the picture of the tyre plus the braga wheel which is 20”

Sorry but the overall diameter is extremely important on these cars as you cannot use different overall diameter tyres on the drive train.
As I'll be using it as a spare it needs to be the same overall diameter as my 21" tyres but with lower profile.

This is an all terrain tyre so would not be compatible with low profile tyres

You are so wrong has nothing to do with tread profile or width. The two main issues are diameter of rim to fit over brakes and overall diameter of tyre so it matches the same amount of revolutions.

MATE I was just letting you know it was all terrain. Don’t care if I’m wrong or right. Search online for the diameter of the rim plus the diameter of the tyre

second. I don’t own a tape measure so have no way of measuring it.

If your current tyres are 21” in diameter - the braga wheel is already 20”.
You can clearly see in the pictures that the tyre depth/diameter is far greater than 1”

anyways it’s up to you to figure out as I can’t measure it for you
