New bike, Stans conversion kit and I don't think they sent me the right kit. Judging by the way the tire fits, I would think I need a wider rim strip.

The wheel is a Sun Ring ringle inferno 27 , 650b wheel, and is 27mm wide. They sent me the Standard Stans conversion kit. I'm thinking I should have got the Enduro, Freeride or Flow kit instead.

Hopefully this pic will say 1000 words.

Given their own Rim Strip Finder application on the NoTubes website recommends the Freeride strip on 26" and 29" Inferno 27 rims, I'd say you are right.

Thank you, the other day their site didn't even list 650b. Well time to figure out my next big order of parts.

Odd, just looked and the Freeride strip is Schrader valve, my wheel is Presta. I wish Stans would reply to my email.

Btw, can someone post a photo on how the rim strip is supposed to fit the wheel. Does it just run to the edge or turn the 90 up the edge to the bead lock.

I dont have a picture, but the Stans strips I used back in the day fill the whole bottom of the rim, and sit snugly up against the bead.

Makes you wonder if they have ever tested it with the Inferno since it isn't even the correct valve stem...

The Enduro seems like it would be a better choice, doesn't sound like Stans really knows.

Got the Enduro kit the other day, I can pinch the sides in a easily release pressure, needs to be a couple mm wider.

Let me know which kit finally worked. I'll be converting my Inferno 27 650b wheels in the near future.
