Salisbury Rear Wheel help!

[Abs_N]

Hi,

I recently had a puncture on my bike the rear tyre just popped no noise but luckily I was not going very fast.

I replaced the tyre with a continental type as they didn't have any MP.
After I fitted the tyre and pumped it up to 60psi the tyre is touching the rear mudguard at the back of the pannier rack.

I had to remove the 2 rear mudguard supports and then used black insulation tape strapped to the pannier rack to hold up the mudguard

Have I fitted the rear wheel incorrectly?

Different tyres have different profiles so it may be a bit bigger than the old one. If it only touches the mudguard in one place then it's probably the mudguard that needs adjusting.
