My problem with the Chrinas isn't so much the tight fit as the apparent uneven width, which gives uneven braking when braking hard at slower speeds. Gotta wear them rims down more
A suggestion for an easier fit, if it's not been mentioned up thread, is to dispense with the rim tape to make the well deeper. I think that some bungs to plug up the eyelet wells could be made pretty easily using a leather punch and an old foam sleeping mat, or similar.
