A couple of people have posted that they have run 32 mm tires on a Rambouillet. 
 I have run 30mm tires with 35mm SKS fenders and Shimano long reach brakes.  It 
was a very close fit using Grand Bois 30mm tires.  

What brand tires have you used to do this?  It seems the height of the tire is 
the limiting factor so a round tire would work better then a tall oval shaped 
tire.  I have thought about experimenting with the wide mouth brakes to see 
what is possible.  Another thing I have wondered about is rims.  Does a wide 
rim give a lower profile to the tire then a narrow rim?  My current wheels are 
built with Open Pro rims.  

I would be very interested in hearing how you made this work and what type of 
fender/tire clearance you had.
