I'd rather lace a larger hub to the rear wheel. I'm starting to think the Russians were correct; a 17-inch rim is the answer. I'm hoping I can keep the upgraded, rear cush hub, and still get a rear sprocket large enough to keep the correct, final drive ratio to the rear wheel. There are many wonderful choices for good, 17-inch knobby tires.

Even the stock, 15-inch, CST C6017 tire greatly outshines the best alternative, 15-inch tires available in North America.
