Forgive my lack of knowledge but...I have acquired an Electra Cruiser 1 and the stock knobby tires don't roll worth crap. I am wanting to install a set of 26 x 1.95 tires. Will a smaller tire(smaller than the 2.15) fit on the stock rims? What about a larger width tire?
Thanks in advance.\
I just realized that this should be posted in "bicycle mechanics" oops.

Ok, so from what I've gathered these tires I'm looking at (Kenda Kross Plus xc) should fit my rim. Only 20.00 for a pair too.
