I've wondered before if the source of this enigma lies in differences in tyre diameter, not so much in a bead and /or rim taper. The quarter inch you mention is the same amount someone milled off his rims to get his tyres to fit.

See my web page on 9.00-16 tyres and follow the link to the various forum threads, mailing list messages and web pages.

The jury still seems to be out on this issue, though. We need to assemble a 16" Rim Committee to see this solved for once and all
