The spirit of this board is to compile and organize wheels and tires related discussions.

If a new wheel tech is released, (say for example, TPU tubes, a brand new tire, or a new rim standard), feel free to start the discussion in the popular "Road". Your topic will eventually be moved here!

I had 700x28 and 700x30 side by side before mounting them, same tread with different case.

Well bicycle rolling resistance and others in the dedicated thread measured the tread on the 700x28 at 30mm. Others and myself measured the 700x30 tread at 32mm. You can see the photos in the other tread.

I measured the 30C tire at almost exactly 32mm.

BRR measured the 28C at 30mm.

This was my experience also. First batch tires seem to be a little inconsistent.

Mines were prerelease tires, months before they were released, so it makes sense.
