I have a nice 26" wheelset with Araya RM-17 rims I’d like to use for an old Mtb to gravel conversion. I thought I might put some Gravelkings I have on. I mounted one on the rim, and it looks like a legit balloon bike wheel. It really looks wild to me. Maybe because I’ve never seen this combination. Most of the charts I’ve found suggest 2.0 is the max for 17mm inner width. Will it make much of a difference if I go up to 2.1? I’m thinking it should be fine if kept at a reasonable PSI. Just wondering, has anyone used this combo, and had any issues.
