What is the narrowest tire I can install on the rim? I want to put a 35cc cyclocross tire on it. Would that work or is the rim too wide? Thanks

I am running a 48 mm tire. This rim is about 28.5 mm on the outside. Mounting a 35mm tire should not be a problem.

It will fit perfectly, I'm running 700x35c cyclocross tires on my set of these wheels.

I wish i could say yes or no. Your model looks bigger then mine. To be honest since it was just one weight i never went to trouble of trying it on mine. I just bought some aggressive rear tire . sorry i am no help.

Yes. In fact the rims are rather narrow (19mm) for the fat tires that come with the bike. Quoting Sheldon Brown: "A general guideline is that the tire width should be between 1.45/2.0 x the inner rim width." The inner rim width of the wheels on this bike are 13mm, so 700x23 should be good, where 700x32 is really pushing it!

There is "NO" rim included, it is just the tire and if you are looking for a true 26 X 2.1 tire then look somewhere else. This tire measures like a 1.95 tire and when I contacted Kenda, Eric told me that's the way it is supposed to be and included a chart and insinuated that you need to be an Engineer to understand it, thankfully they're not the only tire manufacturer because I will never buy another Kenda tire. Sorry for a long winded answer for a simple question but I feel people should know what they're buying.

I have changed everything from 8" golf cart tires to 17" truck tires with mine. Havent done any bike tires, but dont see why it wouldnt work. Fitting the rim over the center post might be a prob. I love this changer! Well made and works like a charm!

depends on what kind of commuter bike, I'll just base it how wide is your tire, mine is a 26"x1.95, I think if it is less than 1.8 this fender will be overkill it will look too wide for the tire, aesthetically this fenders looks good except when your tire is too narrow and especially if its not a knobby tire...well its not theft proof, its actually designed to be easily removed and install.. but that works for me because it doesn't rain much where I live, so I want it be easily removed when I want to. once you have attached the cones and screw under your fork it will only take you a few seconds to remove it and maximum of 1 minute to put it back on. very light to carry around. depends on what kind of commuter bike, I'll just base it how wide is your tire, mine is a 26"x1.95, I think if it is less than 1.8 this fender will be overkill it will look too wide for the tire, aesthetically this fenders looks good except when your tire is too narrow and especially if its not a knobby tire...well its not theft proof, its actually designed to be easily removed and install.. but that works for me because it doesn't rain much where I live, so I want it be easily removed when I want to. once you have attached the cones and screw under your fork it will only take... » Read More depends on what kind of commuter bike, I'll just base it how wide is your tire, mine is a 26"x1.95, I think if it is less than 1.8 this fender will be overkill it will look too wide for the tire, aesthetically this fenders looks good except when your tire is too narrow and especially if its not a knobby tire...well its not theft proof, its actually designed to be easily removed and install.. but that works for me because it doesn't rain much where I live, so I want it be easily removed when I want to. once you have attached the cones and screw under your fork it will only take you a few seconds to remove it and maximum of 1 minute to put it back on. very light to carry around. « Show Less

I would feel comfortable putting a kenda 700 x 40 tire on your bike...should fit ok...I would recommend always changing the tube when you change a tire, especially the rear tire...I would recommend using a kenda 700 x 40-45 tire tube...it is available on amazon for about $3.54 plus shipping...I have both tires and tubes, very satisfied...

The first question is no, this rim is designed for hybrid to mountain bike tires. The rim.is too wide for road bike tires.

first, make sure you don't have 26 inch tires, like a mountain bike - because 700x26 is kind of an odd width. i'm sure it exists, but it's not that common. if you really do have 700c wheels, then there's a couple things you need to consider.1. is there any room in the frame for a wider tire? stick your nose down there and see how much clearance you already have.2. is there room for fenders, if you need them? this may not matter.if it fits in the frame, there's no reason you can't go wider. i've done it. if you have calipers or v-brakes, make sure you open them correctly to allow the installation of the tire. good luck. this is a good tire, in my opinion, for the money. first, make sure you don't have 26 inch tires, like a mountain bike - because 700x26 is kind of an odd width. i'm sure it exists, but it's not that common. if you really do have 700c wheels, then there's a couple things you need to consider.1. is there any room in the frame for a wider tire? stick your nose down there and see how much clearance you already have.2. is there room for fenders, if you need them? this may not matter.if it fits in the frame, there's no reason you can't go wider. i've done it. if you have calipers or v-brakes, make sure you open them... » Read More first, make sure you don't have 26 inch tires, like a mountain bike - because 700x26 is kind of an odd width. i'm sure it exists, but it's not that common. if you really do have 700c wheels, then there's a couple things you need to consider.1. is there any room in the frame for a wider tire? stick your nose down there and see how much clearance you already have.2. is there room for fenders, if you need them? this may not matter.if it fits in the frame, there's no reason you can't go wider. i've done it. if you have calipers or v-brakes, make sure you open them correctly to allow the installation of the tire. good luck. this is a good tire, in my opinion, for the money. « Show Less

I believe the tires are standard 12" tires. Head to the local bike store...not box store...they should be able to help. Must be putting some miles on it to wear out a tire...bike on!!!!!!!

Most tires have two dimensions: width and circumference. These rims accept a 700c circumference tire. These rims will accept a range of tire widths from 23mm to 32mm. The width range comes from ERTRO guidelines. The guidelines are just that, and you may be able to safely mount a tire outside of the width range implied by the width of the rim. The circumference is not negotiable. Do not mount a 27" tire on these, only 700c.Source: http://www.sheldonbrown.com/tire-sizing.html RIP

You can't put 15" rim size tires on a 16" rim. The 8" width of the rim will work fine. As far as back spacing...not really sure ..i tried finding these tires for a 16" rim but no luck..so i went with 15x8s. I have them on my jeep. Works great..love the tires...now ordering the same for my dodge

This rim is used on hybrid bikes. While the physical width is 24mm you will need to mount a hybrid tire. 700 x 32 to 700 x 38 would be your best choices. Matching the front size would also work well.

I'm not an expert on bicycle tire repair, my husband fixes all of the grandkids bikes, but my suggestion is two fold. First, there are several resources on the internet that explain how to calculate rim size to determine tire size but I found that a bit confusing. My best advice would be to call a bicycle repair shop and tell them what size your rim is and ask them what size tire you need, and then search for that size tire for the best deal. Good luck.

You need a 27 x 1 1/4 not a 700c like these. These tires won't fit your rim at all. The rest doesn't matter because they won't fit in the first place..

The tire that came on mine was a 16"... It was some no-name brand that was VERY poor quality.. I replaced it with a cheapo kenda from my LBS... Cost me five bucks, and no issues... I did have to true the wheel though... No big deal... Feel free to email me with any other questions, especially with modifications... I've made several that have improved the trailer quite a bit, but have costed very little.... Be safe, and have a great day!

Typically your wheel size will be SMALLER than your tire size. For example, a wheel rim of 26x1.5 can support a tire size of 26x1.75. On the existing rim that came with the bike, there should be an inscription of the rim size. Since you are using a tire size of 26x1.75, I would recommend a wheel size of 26x1.5. Hope this is helpful. Good luck!
