Rim and tyre combinations?

I have 1.75 Cheng Shin comp 3 style treads fitted to a set of Araya 7x 1.50's, and they look and perform fine. I think anything wider than a 1.75 tyre on a 1.50 rim may look a bit wrong, and might not be the safest either...

Like trying to balance a jelly on a lolly stick  :D

I have now fitted a 1.75 comp III to my Torker LP on the front to give it the fat/thin combo, as I have a 1.5 comp III on the rear  :daumenhoch:

I'm thinking these for my quad as I've just reassigned my black z rims......

The Thin/Thiner (1.75/1.5) look is fast becoming my favourite look

Four of my Pro size bikes are set up that way at the mo :coolsmiley:
