I took the diameter to be the diameter of the wheel. A 17" rim is immediately going to reduce the diameter by 1" so surely you'd have to put a higher profile tyre on it to achieve the same diameter as an 18" wheel with a standard tyre.

Sorry mate I have a way of making simple things sound complicated ... or so Mrs Flyer often tells me!

You are correct assuming the tyre width is a constant. Below are some examples of Bridgestone's current range which all have a 655mm outside diameter:

T31 - 140/70 x 18
T31 - 160/70 x 17
RS10 - 200/55 x 17
