One thing to consider about tight fender clearance... this has happened a couple times on my wife's Betty w/ Hetres and SKS P-50s... is the space between the tire and fender filling up with debris (wet pine needles) to the point that the wheel freezes. It requires removing the wheel to clean it all out.
