Does anybody know what is going on with these tires? There are only a few sizes available on Schwalbe's web site, the sizes they have are discounted price wise and they are not accepting returns on those sizes.

It's probably the switch between the first and the second generation.
My local retailer also made discount on the first generation eddy current few weeks ago.
Now he got the second generation full in stock with all sizes available.

Are there any noticable differences?

No major differences, they got the new casing brand names.

The eddy current front is now branded as 'super trail' casing instead of 'super gravity', but as there is almost no weight difference: this is 99% the same tire.

Also maybe some improvements on the injection process but the pattern remains the same.

One thing I’ve noticed is that every schwalbe tire I’ve bought has a bit of a wobble, a schwobble. Some more than others..other I did get a couple free tires from them because of it so I’m assuming it’s a known issue... hopefully new tires address that.

Im currently running eddie current front and rear and both have a slight schwobble...

Thanks, I assumed that there would be some changes made, I have received the rear tire I ordered, yet to receive the front, maybe it will be the new model.
