This may be a stupid question, but could i swap my 2.10 tyres with 2.25 inch tyres or would i need to swap the rims. There is enough clearance so it wouldn't be touching the frame im just wondering if it will fit on the rim.
Thanks -Jude

You can swap .15 of an inch is nothing.

You may notice very little difference, not least because tyre measurements are not consistent.

Tread can also make a difference

I recently changed a 2.35" knobbly MTB tyre for a 2.4" shallow tread city/trekking tyre.

The latter looks narrower to me, although its profile is rounder.
