    Is it possible to put wider tires on the back of a MS Plaid with Arachnid wheels (thinking 315 or 325 if it is safe). Anyone tried?

    Sorry for the dumb question, I realize I could ask Support but they will probably take days to respond. Got two nails, one on each back tire, and can't find the 295 stock tires. Thinking this might be a good "excuse" to go wider if it is possible/safe. Anyone tried this? Thanks for the info,
