Personally, I think that oversize tyres look horrible on these bikes, but it's your bike and you can do whatever pleases you.

I've just spent a day re-working a rear fender that was flared to accommodate a larger rear tyre. The guy made a total mess of the fender, but I think I've got it sorted now.....

Interesting to see some pictures of your rims.......

Is there a WM3 rim that I can source that will work for the rear hub and spokes pattern? The alternative would be the same WM2 on front and rear. I have 2.75 front tyre and 3.25 rear tyre and it looks like both would fit nicely on a WM2 rim. I'm to sure how it would look though, maybe a bit strange?

After consulting Gordon from this site it may be my rims are too far gone. I'll post some pics later. Very interested to get ideas on a WM3 in the meantime, or going WM2 front and rear.
