I would like to know if there are any issues regarding fitting split rim tyres between a independent suspension and rigid suspension.
Rims are stamped 16 x550f sdo fs10.

Yeah I'm 99% sure that the offset is different. The IFS nearly having a zero offset. Yes the rim dimensions will be the same but not the offset.

Hinks,

On a 100 Series IFS, some folks reckon you can do it and some reckon ya can't. I reckon ya can't.

From my observations, it looks like the inner tube valve stem, which sticks out inside the rim, will get torn off by hitting the disc caliper.

The offset is substantially different. 60mm I think.

I'd be happy never to use a split rim again! I find them a PITA.
