You can extrapolate that out to at least 30 mm tubeless with very little downside. They are even more comfortable on rougher roads and the lower pressure makes the sealant more effective. Over the last few years I've gone from 25 to 28 and currently running 30 mm wide tyres without any significant loss in speed.
