Default Re: rims

Mike,

Thanks for your research and pictures. For me it puts an end to the debate on why these tyres & rims don't mix & match: it isn't so much a case of the 0° versus 5° degree bead angles, but the considerable difference in bead diameter.

See my page on 9.00-16 tyres for your pictures of a R.F.H.S.2 tyre. The side is clearly marked "TO FIT 6.50 H RIMS ONLY".

Regards,
Hanno
