what size tires can I go on my road bike?
I have a 2012 Cervelo R5, and was thinking I could put on some wider tires that would be a bit more comfortable and durable. Does anyone know how I can figure out how wide i could go with the tires?

In my experience, I've had to guess-and-check with various tires to figure out which ones will clear, because each tire model has a different final tire width based on the compound thickness and how round it sits when pressurized. Cervelo's FAQ seems to agree that it depends on a lot, so it might be best to order from a shop that has a good return policy.
