Hi. I’m a neophyte so please bear with me. I’m in the market for a pair of 26” X 1 3/8” tires. However, I’ve been informed that it is a convoluted situation; there are actually two different “sizes” of 1 3/8: a European and a Schwinn. The bike I am purchasing them for is a Columbia Sports III, you got any idea which I am looking for? If you had the correct ones I would purchase a pair from you. Thanks, Muji

Look on the sides of the ones you currently have. They may be marked with the ISO #
Strangely, Bothe sizes are actually European. They just gave up on the ISO 597 size early. Schwinn used it through the 80's.
Two Standard, lightweight bicycle 26" tire sizes;
- ISO 590 which is currently considered a vintage European size. If your tire is one of these it will be a 35/590 or 37/590
And
ISO 597 which is the size that fits the Schwinn S5/S6 and European EA1 rims. The only tires available for the 597 size are the Chinese made versions. Made in ISO 37/597 only.

Both are available but the 590 version has the best choices.

It looks like these being sold are of the 590 ISO size..... ?

I really appreciate the reply. I believe what I am looking for is 597. I appreciate your assistance.

Do you have a lot of 26” X 1 3/8”?

The white walls you have, what are they and their condition? I have a 1961Raleigh Sports that needs new tires and I want whitewalls, let me know. Sorry the previous message was not directed at you, you showed all your tires, but for someone else.
