Hi----nice looking rims, what width are they & what size 700C tire would you recommend? I blew out a modified 28" rim with a 700 x 40C tire. This is what I'm looking to replace.

Thanks/Bob

a 700 x 40 C tire would fit nicely, prsessure max3-3,5 bar

the broad 40 tire gives you extra suspension

Thanks for the fast reply,one other question. Would you rate them as "riders" or "display only" ? I ride this TOC bike (1896 Stearns) a few time a month.

What does that mean? “ Do not store them to dry”
