Same as jim, got XR4's they just clear the bridge of the swingarm - and rub slightly on hard cornering.

As M6TTF says you can get frame rub when cornering hard. When i took the rear wheel out the inside of the chain stay was showing signs of rub so they got swapped out.

Ooh interesting! I've been contemplating getting 2.2" Mountain Kings next time but maybe I won't now!
