Hum,
Re: bike snow tyres,
My handy tip for today is:
i f you have an old 2.1 tyre lying around you can just knock a few  stubby nails through them and fit them over a set of 1.95... they'll  safely stay on the rim  due to the pressure of the inner tyre...

Hum,
i  managed to fit both tyres inside the  (standard sized) rims, but you got to watch that it doesn't pop out when blowing it up....

If you first fit the tyres together - then fit  the two `beads` (from one side) of both tyres into the rim - then prise the other two in , it fits quite snugly...

But you got to hurry - the snows melting...
