Does the wider rim affect clearance with a given tire in bike frames?
Yes, the wider rim provides added tire volume. The difference will depend on the tire used, but as a general recommendation, a 700 x 32 tire's width on an Aeolus Pro 3V would measure closer to a 700 x 35 width as measured on other rims(even though the actual diameter stays the same)
