Yeah my 2.2s do that, I can imagine this is a bit worse. You like the ardents? I ran them for about a year on my MTB and wasn't a massive fan. An ok back tyre but a bit draggy for low grip levels. Ikons or small block 8 would be sweet on this. Ardents do look sick though.
Do you have to let the tyres down on them to clear the brakes when you remove the wheels?
