You just need the dish corrected in order to have the wheel in the center of the frame. The spokes don't change the rim and have no influence on which tire(s) fit. This is a function of the rim width.
1. The inside of the rim has a sticker that says 20 x 16. On the outside, there's a sticker that says 20" x 1.5.
2. That's what I thought, the wheel is built, I'm just replacing tires, why even touch the spokes...
