On my 24" Sears Spyder I have a 24x1-3/8" tire. I'm looking for a replacement, and on E-bay there is a NOS tire that also has ..."x1-1/4" added at the end, and it says it will only fit a Scwhinn S-5 rim. Now, I've seen Schwinn 24x1-3/4 tires for an S-7 rim, but I've never seen that third size addition.

What do I need?
 
I pulled the tires off and de-spoked the rims. The front rim fits outside the rear rim. Is that normal?

My Spyder's wheels are the same as yours...rear is normal 24" tire. Front is that odd sized 24"?
