Will this tire fit?

Hi, This will sound like a really stupid question, but my current tire is udder crap and i am looking into upgrading. My current tire is 26 x 2.2 and i was wondering if a tire that is 26 x 2.1, and 26 x 2.3 would fit?

Yes. Either will be slightly narrower or wider. Actual measurements will also be dependent on rim width and tire casing size.

There are no stupid questions, just stupid people who don't ask questions.

Also, udders usually have milk, not crap. As you were...

You can generally use as wide a tire as will fit between your chain stays.
