Hi Charlie,
Harris Cycles has some 700x35 (closer to an actual 32mm) Avocet tires- the older Japanese ones with tan sidewalls. The price is right, the look is right, and they roll along quite nicely. I commuted on these for over a year, and now have a set them on the family tandem.
Best regards,

HI
I have a Mercian (1982) looks like new+would like to ride it.
Has 700-35c Michelin Hi-Lite tyres that look good BUT I think they are
original equipment on this bike.
I do not trust them because of the age.
The rims are Wolber M58(Super Champion) 23.2 wide outside measurement.
? What tyre will be appropriate to use?
I'm thinking 700-28 or 32c
What do I do?
ThankYou
