Bikes: 1986 Fuji Allegro 12 Spd; 2015 Bianchi Kuma 27.2 24 Spd; 1997 Fuji MX-200 21 Spd; 2010 Vilano SS/FG 46/16

As others indicated, a wheel true up and go with a 1.5-1.85 commuter tire if they were 1.95 or wider. I thought about new tires for mine. They are knobby 26 x 2.10's. The rim is indicated as a 26 x 1.5 and I figured the narrowest tire I could go was 1.5 on those rims. I did get a confirmation on that thru the vendor by asking specifically if they'd fit. I guess with a 1:1 ratio I better not hit a pothole, otherwise the rim probably gets damaged.
