A little narrower than you require, but a possible answer?

I had a look at the 2007 Schwalbe catalogue when you first posted and I could see nothing in this size. In general, they seem to provide the most comprehensive range of any manufacturer. Presumably, those SJSC have will be the end of a diminishing supply. You may be advised to grab them if they will do - otherwise the expression rocking horse doodahs springs to mind.

Thank you to 'Cunobelin' and 'thirdcrank' for some very welcome advice and assistance in obtaining replacement tyres for my old RSW111 bike. I have now obtained the tyres from SJS Cycles and they seem to be fine .
I am most grateful for your help.
Thanks again,
Alan Mackay.
