Hi Cristobal,

The Marathon and Durano Plus tires are the two tires in our line that routinely are taller than they are wide. The additional layer of puncture protection causes this. The Marathon Plus and the Durano Plus are available in a 25c width. Whether this helps or not will depend on how badly the 28s are rubbing on the brake mount. Is your bike more or less considered a sport/racing model?
