Wheel Specs
Finally mounted up the tire I wanted and took some measurements, but first the details.
36 db spoke, Sun Rynolite rim, 7s Shimano hub, no skewer or cogs.
Continental Avenue 700x40c semislick, wire bead and easy to mount, has tread pattern like GP, 70 psi.
Diameter: 699mm
width: 37mm
Weight: 4.25 lbs
Tire has a almost perfect round crossection.
rim is almost 10mm narrower that tire.
Most of my bikes don't even have clearence for this, but my tourer does.
Anybody want to know the specs of this tire mounted on a CR-18? Looks to me if any narrower rim is gonna put extra stress on the side walls.

Sheldon has a good table relating permissible tyre width to rim width. In practice, one can generally use a SLIGHTLY wider tyre than the table suggests.
