I don't adhere to the 4mm wider than internal width. I don't like the tape coming up the side of the rim where the bead is. 22mm internal width, I use 23mm tape.
I do use DTSwiss tape. it's expensive, but works really well.
I also clean the rim bed with alcohol for best adhesion.

Use a product made for bicycle rims.
