Here you go. I don’t think I can explain better than this.
Measure circumference (girth) of your unit by using a measurement tape and wrapping it around your dick at its thickest point (usually the base).
For your dick to fit properly into the tube, the tube’s inner circumference has to be greater than your dick circumference.
You said that your dick’s circumference (girth) was 5.25”.
Therefore if you use a tube with 1.75” diameter, your dick will fit in that tube because 1.75” diameter tube has 5.5” inner circumference which is greater than 5.25”.
A 2” diameter tube will have 6.3” circumference (2”*3.14=6.3). So 2” tube is definitely too big for 5.25” girth.
Going the other way around, the minimum diameter of a tube that would fit you is your girth divided by pi (3.14). In your case it’s 5.25”/3.14 = 1.67”. So any tube with a diameter greater than 1.67” will accommodate your dick just fine. The closest standard diameter that is sold out there is 1.75”, so you need to buy it.
