Obviously the bike in question would have to be measured to ensure fit like any other non-standard part. You wouldn't try to put them on a track bike but you have a good chance with a road hybrid - and should have plenty of clearance on a chunky mountain style hybrid with suspension forks like that one.
The Verve takes 38mm tires, max. Very few hybrids take much wider than that.
