Tire question

[KelRod]

Hi,

I have the chance to but a yellow band wheel set. I believe they are for a 26x1.75 or 1 3/4 tire. My question is could one put a set of 26x2.125 tires on the rims?

Cant put them on Schwinn S-7 rims. They will fit offbrand 26X1.75 rims...Schwinn S-7 rims should be stamped as such near the spokes

Or 26x 1 3/4, even 26x2x13/4. But not 2.125. Unless you lace the kickback hub on to a balloon rim.

Ok. What a set worth?

Check Niagra cycle, Blackwalls are about $11.00 a piece.

I meant what are the wheels worth?
