As above really, I'm concerned with width and tyre roll.
Got a cracking deal with CK Hubs.

No, you'll die.

It'll be fine! Wouldn't personally have Kings on 819s though, better rims and hubs for the money IMO!

I use 2.35 fat alberts all the time on xm819s and I'm still not dead.

My exact setup, no problems with roll as long a you keep the pressures sensible.

I had a 2.4 on mine at one point, that was a wee bit much but still worked not too bad. 2.2 was fine. They can be a little bit roll-ey but that was the same on my Flows so it's not a rim width thing, I think it's just a big-tyre-with-sausageskin-sidewalls thing.

Though njee is right too.

Thats my set up too, I've had a couple of issues with the side walls on the rubber queens but I don't think its down to the rim/tyre combo. The supplier said the conti side walls aren't the best.

They are heavy compared to the 719, a PITA to build from a mate in the LBS's advice. Considering the 719's run tubless with 2 wraps of stans tape I'm not convinced there worth it.

You'll be fine - I run 2.2 RQBCs with my 719s. I'm not dead yet.
