BIG(ish) tyres

hi,
just curious to know people's opinions of panaracer fire XC tyres?
Also, I bought these tyres a couple of years ago but the bike they were on got nicked. I actually found they barely squeezed through the frame on that bike. These days I'm riding a marginally better cannondale F6 which I think has more clearance for the wide tread (i'm thinking of the 26x2.1's) - is there any way I can be sure they'll fit through the frame? The tyres i have now are 26x2.0 and it *looks* like there's plenty of room...
Cheers.

They're fairly popular.
Different tyres do size up differently, it seems to depend mostly on the side of the shoulder lugs and the rim width.0
