I had same problem. Do all 8.25 have 9"? Cuz I measured diameter of the drum and it was a little over 10" so I chose the 10" but I have t put them on yet

As far as I know the JX's with the police package had the 10". The easiest way to tell it the 10" brakes drum have fins and the 9" do not.

I think 10 inch was the police package, or some kind of package. The MAJORITY are 9 in drums.
