Lew rims and tire widths

emory-<< I recently purchased som Lew wheels and am getting ready to mount some new tires to them.
My question is what width will work best on these rims. The rims are narrow 17mm (with a 15mm glue
bed) will a 22 mm tire such at a conti sprinter 250 sit well enough on these rims? >><BR><BR>

Sure-

Using 22mm tires might negate some of the aero benefit of such narrow rims. Perhaps you bought the
wrong wheels for your needs. But they should attach just fine.

be able to run at least a 22mm tire so I could ride these in crits also I just don't like narrow
tires. If it matters I am 179lbs. and corner pretty hard.

Thanks in advance. Emory
