Can anyone please help me with finding a wide 700c tire? I am looking for something I can use on a hybrid bike that %99 of the time is on the street pavement. I have been looking but cannot seem to find much in a wide tire in this wheel size .. Thank You all Again for your help , Don J.

This is about as big as they get

it is also worth reading their tech info pages.

Ahhh... On this site you need to hit "Specs" and the tire I am talking about is the bottom one ..700c X 47 .. Thanks , Don

You have to be careful about fitting wider tyres because of clearance problems around your forks and rear stays, especially if you ride in muddy conditions, when the mud can build up quite heavily at these points.

And with fenders from personal experience can get quite noisy as well as the clogging .
