Hi all, what's the fattest tire you've had on a R&M SC with stock SKS fender and sufficient clearance?
Prefer Schwalbe.
I'd love to put a 65-584 Smart Sam or even better a 70-584 Eddy Current Rear on but not sure about clearance.
Have had a Super Moto-X and didn't like it in the wet, currently have a Marathon Plus MTB 57-584 and it's great but would like a bit more "sponge" for touring with gear.
 
If anyone is interested, i managed to take a risk and pick up a Schwalbe Smart Sam 65-584 (Addix, Snake, DD, Raceguard) for A$40 (cheap here).
It goes nicely and with sufficient clearance with the SKS fenders on my 2018 SC GX, in heavy mud however i could see the fenders clogging up quite a bit.
Nice tire with noticeably less rolling resistance than the Marathon Plus MTB and better grip all-round i think.
I now know not to go larger than this without modifying the fender.
