My new wheelsets arrive for my 28mm tires for the street. Now I am looking for off road tires. Spoke with Raliegh can get up to a 45mm on the rear.
Not sure if I should post in the MTB/Cyclecross sections but it's a hybrid. Not a lot of options for 45mm wide tires.
Also researching MTB forums suggest different size tires front and back.
would like some feedback on these tires.

Still trying to find something 50mm front 45mm rear that's would work.

if 45mm is the max, I'd stick with 40 or maybe 42. A) tires vary, B) you want some clearance.
