20x3 tires for Lectric ONE?

[Tom521]

I have a Lectric ONE. Does anyone know if I can up-size to 20x3 tires from the stock 20x2.5?

A general rule is that the inner rim width should be at least 40% of the tire width, which would be 30mm or more. Maybe the tire manufacturer knows more specifically what range or rim widths will work.

Naturally, you need room between forks and chain stays and under fenders. The bike will be going a little faster and farther than the speedometer will say.
