Speaking of tire sizes, I'm trying to figure out what the largest interior
diameter wide tire is. The diameter I am interested in is not the hub diameter
but the distance to the inside of the tread. The tires I am currently using are

greater interior diameter, but a flatter tread.

|-|----------|-------X--------|---------|-|

   ^--this distance --^

Thanks for any and all suggestions!
