Can anyone advise what/where to measure (please be very specific) and the dimensions I should look for for in order to determine if they are 650b or 26"? They are not 700c just based on size comparison to numerous other 700c rims I have in my stash.

Start with ETRTO sizing which is logical
beaddiameter for a 650B tyre is 584mm, 650C = 571mm, 26" MTB is 559mm. With an inch at 25.4mm, it shouldn't be to difficult to keep them apart
