Felt Z25 Tire Options
Can anyone tell me the widest tire that a 2009 Felt Z25 (Bontarger Classic rims) will accept? Some of the trails I ride are crushed limestone (or gravel) and I'd like to go to a to least a 700X28 in order to get a little more stability. Thaks for the feedback.

Your rims will not be the problem. What you have to check is how much clearance you have between your current tires and the frame/fork/brake callipers. That will tell you how much larger a tire you can install on your bike. If current clearances are tight, you may not be able to go wider at all
