I had to test it out this weekend so I could give something better than "a little bit". LOL

With the 700c wheels with 40mm Maxxis Refuse tires, I have approximately a half-inch of overlap on a tight turn. It could be an issue on a really tight uphill switchback, but my local rides don't really have any situations where it's an issue. I've only experienced it while riding when I've had to quickly turn at low speed while pedaling.
