Here is a picture of the tread... Only problem is they are 26x2.35 so are probably going to be a bit wide.

Arghh the frame would take it but the fork will struggle it's an early Kona fork and quite narrow up top...that'll being taking paint off ....wish I'd thought about tyre choice a little more before committing those forks! I have some street type kendas on my cruiser BMX thing not the look I want but I can see them going on till I find the right tyre! Cheers tho dude
I think 1.8 to 2.00 is gonna be the max.
Ha who said 26 ain't dead...

I’ve still got the Kenda Nevegal and Tioga Psychos in this thread happy to let either pair go for postage (about £8 at the moment as I have to pay to get it collected!) if they are any use. The Kenda are 2.1 and the Tioga 1.95

To remove sidewall logos - a year of use and 25 years sat at the back of a shed usually does the trick on here!
I would guess acetone will do the trick, will have a go on a scrap tyre when I get the chance.
