    SUV tires for Gazelle Ultimate C8+

    First of all, it's not a dt swiss rim, secondly, if I look at the above table, 60 mm should be fine.

    SUV tires for Gazelle Ultimate C8+

    I wouldn't say I'm determined to have wider tires, I just want tires more suitable for my use than the current Energizer Plus tires.

    SUV tires for Gazelle Ultimate C8+
