I can come up with other excuses, too. But seriously, having another option isn't a bad thing - though at those prices I'd need to be certain that the tyre would fit. I seem to recall that the carcass of the 2.1 racing ralph was only around 50mm, with not a huge amount of space directly to the sides. Anyway, I think tubeless Kojaks might be the next stop after I get fed up running knobbly tyres on road.

Bear in mind that the tyres are a lots thinner and doesn't have thread sticking out.
You were running 2.1 MTB tyres whose thread stick out like a sour thumb close enough to touch the stay, without the thread, I reckon there's ample room.
