Will 26 x 2.35" wide tyres fit under the Ezee mudguards?

[HypnoToad]

I'm looking to get a pair of Big Apple tyres for my Forza, they look like this: Schwalbe Big Apple 24 x 2.35 Wired Tyre Tire With Kevlar Puncture Guard Reflex | eBay

Now, would they fit under the mudguards at all or will they be too big?

cyclezee can probrably answer this for you but in case not. How much space do you currently have between tyre and mudguard ?

And, as an aside, the link seems to say 24 x 2.35 ? but you'll need 26 inch for a forza (as per your title)

I haven't ordered anything yet, good spot with the 24" tyres, I'll make sure I go for the 26" tyres when ordering. I'll try contacting Cyclezee as I'm also after an Ezee torque arm also.

Right now I'm using the 2" wide marathon plus tyre, and while there is some room, there isn't loads. I'll grab a photo tomorrow, as I really would like to keep the mudguards if I can.

The 2" Big Apples are also more comfortable than normal tyres and much easier to accommodate than the 2.35". After the stiff and somewhat uncomfortable Marathon Plus tyres, you'd find the 2" Big Apple a revelation for comfort.

Thanks for the reply, I must admit the marathons are pretty hard, I guess they're designed for durability over comfort.

I managed to find a shop that had the 2.35" tyres on offer at less than £20 for the liteskin version, so I went for a pair. I'm just hoping I can squeeze them in, and if not the shop has free returns and I can go for some thinner ones if I need to.
