Was the clearance adequate? I agree with you on the aesthetics favoring the 28s. My interest in the 35s or 32s is based on their utility and comfort on rougher pavement.
The 35s were for another build, to be honest I didn’t like them that much. I know the trend is for larger tires but they just felt sluggish to me and were overkill for rail trails and most street riding that I do. I could see how they might help on really broken pavement or gravel grinding, that said I never felt that 28s weren’t doing the job and I have a cyclocross bike with 32s for the off road stuff. This is just my opinion, and your and others mileage may vary, I would go with 28s and adjust your tire pressure to match your ride, it requires a little experimentation but it’s worth the effort.
