Bought a pair of xr4 tyres for my Rig but unable to get the tyre on the front without rub on my forks, now after to many near death experiances with a worn xr2 on the front I,m looking @ the rubber Queens 2.2 will they fit without rubbing?

XR4's are enormous.

Rubber Queens are merely very big.

Can't get an XR4 in the back of my Maverick without the outside knobbles rubbing on the seat stays slightly, can get a 2.2" RQ in ok with about 5mm to spare all round...

Probably not. International Mountain Bike mag did a test of the RQs with measurements in mm so you can check on there with the power of google!

I Have a pair of almost new XR4's if you want aldomac

Only real reason for sale is they're a bit big for my frame and forks. Great tyres mind
