No, you need 700C tyres

My guess is Luvtoride60 is asking if 23mm "wide" tires are ok on these rims... :wink:

Rim is 17mm inside width & folks have been running even 25-28mm so 23 should be fine

Here is a little blurb on them

And lots of "23mm" tires are actually measuring at 25mm.

i'm using gp 4000s2 in 23mm on c17 rims. 25mm in Conti measure 28mm on c17 rims.

Of course, C17 width doesn't mean you can ride 23 or 21mm tyres.
