597 is a Schwinn tire, usually referred to as the S6. You can get tires for them, but only low end 1-3/8" tires. Rims are hard to come by outside of steel ones via Schwinn collectors, even then they are not common as the s-7 (571!) which is one of the more baloony schwinn tires. You can get fantastic 590 tires if you are diligent, but usually it is only hardware store quality tires, however I think you can fit 700cx32mm tires in an international. So what are we trying to solve again?
