• Those tyres on those rims will be a good fit but be warned, Schwable and IRC tyes (other too) will cause rim compression and the 340 rim is not stiff radially so a massive tension drop will be seen and the wheel can move out of dish as well. Once the tyre is mounted and inflated you might need to raise spoke tension to 100kf on the DS (in case you change tyres at a later date) and adjust dish. you will probably have to do this with any tubeless tyre on the 340 rim. The tension changes needed will not be big but should be done to improve spoke life. wheels with the 340 rim are probably best bought with tubeless tyres fitted so the arrive right. This is why I am keen on wheels I build leaving with tubeless tyres as the tension drop seem is big on all wheels and as there is variation between tyres (no matter how small) it can mean that after a tubeless tyre is fitted I sometimes have to add tension to all spokes or just one side. The pacenti SL23 V2 rim was a good one for this. When tubeless tyres where mounted the rim moved to the NDS and 1/4 turn was needed to pull the wheel back to be dished again.
