As per the front of a rival, and clearly inferior, magazine.

Do we need guides that are specific to wheel size or will my favourite tyre still be my favourite, irrespective...?

I can do it in 10 words.

You want black round ones that fit your stupid new wheels.

In fairness, not all of the most popular 26" & 29" tyres are being made in 650b variety yet, but still, I'm sure they will be soon....

well, as there is (at the moment) a limited range of 27.5 tyres it'd be good to know which of your favourites are available in a proper size

I wouldn't have thought the tred makes a difference regardless of the size, if you like the rolling resistance, climbing grip and cornering grip why change? If you favourite tyre isn't in your size, find another tyre that you like as well and use that instead.
