Would these fit my 26 inch wheeled LHT? They seem pretty wide to me...

They fit great, loads of room to spare even.

Those are the only ones that should go on your LHT!
Well... IMO of course.

The 60mm do pinch inward very slightly below the fork crown due to the wide size. Not a problem with any fender that has a little bit of flexibility. Just don't use wood, and they will be fine.

All of the posts I've read on these fenders say they require some scooping around the fork to fit. P50's fit with no problem. I have PB 50's on my 54cm LHT and they work and fit great.

I use the their Hard Cores on my LHT but in spite of their claim, they will break without too much trouble...

I have those in silver on my LHT, they fit fine, and if I want to go to a wider tire, I'm good.
