looks like his worked, but i had some WTB 2.4 on mine and it barely fit, and a 2.5 IRC and my wheel wouldnt even fit on, but my 2.5 24.1 fits better than the 2.4 i had :naughty:

wtb tires are way bigger then they list.
a 2.4 is like a 2.7... or something.
I know a 24.1 2.5 fits perfect.

I hope this helps. I'm running a Maxxis Minion R 2.5 on an Alex DX-32 rim on a BT RAVen 5.0. The clearance is kind of close but I don't think I'll ever have to worry about it.

michelin 2.5 fits fine (BT 5.0, DX32 rim)
just rediscovered the awesome tioga white tiger tyre (also a 2.5). About 100g lighter than the mich, stupidly soft compound, thicker sidewalls, Kevlar bead. Thank god they're cheaper than they used to be.

dx-32 + irc kujo 2.35 are ok for 5.0 for sure
