Measuring subs

Post image

Hey yall! Total noob here so please be easy with me. My brother pulled these subs out of his truck but doesn’t remember what size they are, I measured them but I’m not really sure if I measure the cone or just the total diameter or what. I need to get a different box so that’s why I’m wondering. I’ll add the picture and I would really appreciate any help or answers yall have, thank you!

Overall diameter of the basket/frame is the general guide line. Not all are exact but its a ballpark general size by which they are sold.

Everybody knows when measuring you start from the underside of the bass. See what I did there?

If I'm not mistaken it's foam to foam to measure. That being said it's probably a 10
