I'm not sure but i think it's the outside of the metal frame,total diameter . And sometimes that don't quite make it ? could be a little more , like the the size routed out that the basket rim fits in, i had that closer than the actual size of the speaker in some brands ?

Interesting question - just a few years ago in the Musical Instrument industry - there was a law suit filed against all the speaker cabinet manufacturers because the 15"woofers everyone advertised actually were not really 15". Not sure of the outcome of the lawsuit - but traditionally it was across the frame to the edge.
