For those with 17mm internal rim width and 25mm tires???
I just ordered a set of Reynold Assault wheels for my cannondale super six evo which has tight clearance on the rear. The Reynolds have a 17mm internal and 25mm external, I planned to run a 25mm Schwalbe pro ones. However I’m a little concerned with the width as I can only go 26mm wide or so. For those with 17/25 rims what is your measured tire width? I figure I might have to run a 23mm tire on the rear and let it grow to 25.

I have Reynolds carbon wheels that are 17/25 rims. I run Continental 5000 clinchers and they fit fine on my bike which also has a narrow clearance. My other wheelset has a 19mm internal width and it was pretty tight. You should be OK. Last year, I ran Continental 4000 and they were a lot wider.

Jarmo Bierman At bicyclerollingresistance tests all his tires in a 25mm size on a 17mm rim. Maybe that will be useful to you.
