Hello, what should i do from here?
i posted last year about modifying my road bike into a commuter. I have an extra pair of 700x 35c tires and thought they would fit going from 25c but no clearance on front and rear (see photos).
For the rear, the way the Merlin frame tapers even with 650b wheel i think it's still gonna touch on 30+ tires? what would you suggest? I really wanted the 35c to swap but looks like this 90's frame just wont have the accommodating width unfortunately

my OG post here

no clearance
