Hi guys, I bought new tires for my 28” x 1.75 wheels with the same measurements, but it happens that the new tires(brown) are much wider and taller.
For this reason, the tires touch the fenders so I can’t use them.
Anybody able to help me figure which tire measurements should I buy?

Sadly tire sizes aren’t truly the same between brands (or even models) it als doffers quite a bit on what internal rim width you’ll measure for example.
When installed what’s the difference between the 2? Would just buy the same as the old one or the new one a few mm smaller. Go with the Ertro sizing, so the 47-622 for the old and the new drop it a bit, like a 42-622 (1st figure iss width, 2nd diameter)
with ERTO you can be sure the tire will fit the rim (622) and will not touch the frame (47), but it does not take account of the outher diameter, which is the problem in this case.
