Ahhh, thats still a lot of tire on a 3 speed, but you don't get to keep the fenders on.

I'm looking at doing a Raleigh with a 650b wheelset so I can keep fenders and have a large selection of tires. The one issue there is that there aren't many 650b rim brake rims available, I have found some, but I need to do some more digging.
