I wondered if anybody could shed some light? I am attempting to put 700x32c gatorskin tyres on to a hybrid rim but am really having trouble getting the last 15cm on to the rim. The tyres that I had on previously were 700x42c. Should these fit or am I just kidding myself?

Kind regards

Matt

  • Some tires are harder to put on then others, but it should fit.
