I mounted a set of 1.35" tires on some MTB rims once;they were so hard to mount I wondered if they were the right size. Def not something I'd want to deal with on the side of the road.



As the others have said,nope:

"This is a marketing term for wide 622 mm ("700c") tires."
I know. I read something incorrectly months ago at a bike shop......... Thank you.
