Or, put the wider fender that Compass sells on the Saluki.  That's what I did 
with mine when I put Hetres on.  I did have to trim the bottom front edge of 
the back fender to get it to fit between the chainstays.  I've got photos on my 
flickr site showing what I did.

I've seen Hetres on a fendered A Homer Hilson and it "fit", but boy did it not 
have much wiggle room.  My comfort zone suggests having a pencil width of space 
between the tire and the fender, while the Hetre I saw would be lucky to have 
half a pencil width. I would go with William's suggestion of using Lierre tires 
if I really wanted something with more tread than the Pari Moto, but YMMV. 
  
Good luck!

Hetres will fit your Saluki front + back just fine. Fenders, on the other hand, 
can be an issue. VO makes a few sizes ... you'll want to measure yours first to 
be sure ... look for at last 52mm inside across the span. I use 50mm SS 
Berthoud's (via Mike Kone's online store) on both a Saluki and a Bleriot. 
There's some trade off in coverage but no problems with fit anywhere.

I am loving my new Saluki with Pari- Moto tires.  What a blend of comfort & 
performance!  But I am also looking ahead and wondering if the Heters will fit 
under the VO Al fenders.  It looks like a kinda tight fit.  Any experience?
