Rims and Tires...
Hi..., I change my mtb tires for slick ones like 5 months ago, the size is 26x1.95.
Now I was thinking about changing my tires for 26x1.50 slicks, because I have to order them from the States or Brazil to my country, I dont know if they will fit in my actual rims, would they? Will I improve the speed on them, or its more or less the same as the 26x1.95?? I have a Raleigh M40, 2004
thanks in advanced

1.5's should be just fine. Your best bet is to fine the rim manufacturer's website and inquire of them what is the minimum tire width you can use....
