Who makes the largest diameter 24 X 3.0 tire?

[Big Ape]

I am planning another build (like always) and I want to use a 24 X 3.0 rear tire with a 26 X 2.125 front tire. I want to find the tallest 24 X 3 available so that the diameter front and rear match as closely as possible. I have measured some Felt thick bricks that I have and they are 25 1/2" to 25 9/16", most of the 26's that I have are between 26 1/4" and 26 1/2" tall. I know that is not a big difference, but if anyone knows of a taller 24" tire, that would probably be the tire I would use.

Thick bricks are the largest I have measured to date.

You may wish to check out BOA G 24x3.45" tires. They sell them in the RRB store.

Do you know the overall diameter of the BOA G's ? It may be a mute point though, the BOA is probably to wide for my frame.

Always wanted to use one of these on the rear of a bike:

I think the 24" version is called a Hoggy G, not a Boa G...

Can someone please help me with this... What size rim would you need to fit a 24 x 3 tire... I've got a 24 x 1 3/8 and it's not even close... Sorry I'm new at this! Thanks!

Fractional and decimal sizes are not interchangeable, you will need a 24 x 1.5 or 24 x 1.75, that sort of thing, not a 24 x 1 3/8 or 24 x 1 3/4.

Thank you for the correction. I likely will order a pair as soon as I can buy another aluminum Felt.
