  • How does rim width affect tyre profile?
    If the same tyre is fitted on two different rims i.e. 17mm or 19mm is this a noticeable?

  • A bit late - but when I went from a 15mm internal width rim to a 19mm my 25mm labelled Veloflex Corsas went from a measured 23.5mm to 25.4mm. For me that would mean a pressure drop of about 15PSI so pretty significant, though granted it's a big step up in rim width. If you want wider tires then the best thing to do is obviously to buy wider tires.

  • You went from 15mm to 19mm, that is a massive difference already.

    He's talking about going from 17mm to 19mm, which I also concur, very little difference to tell.
