I ride a Trek ZX 6500 with 26x1.95 tires. I don't know how big the rims are (26"?). What size spoke wrench do I need?
the one that fits the snuggest.
I know it seems like a broad answer, but that's just how it is, there's a whole variety of sizes that aren't dependant on wheel size at all.
most likely green or black handle, but you never know.

Rim size has nothing to do with spoke wrench size needed unfortunately. Neither does tyre size.

I wasn't sure about mine either, so I took the front wheel off and brought it to the shop, matched it up there. Turned out to be "red".
