huh??? I think you are thinking of the wrong wheel. I have an aero 72 and use a 25mm tire on it and the aero 90. From slowtwitch, they tested it with a 25mm tire, https://www.slowtwitch.com/..._58_and_72_3957.html
The 700x25mm tires measured right at 26.0mm (at 100 psi) – just slightly narrower than the 26.3mm rim:
To the OP this is a great , fast rim, I bought the 2016 model, it states 16mm width internal, 26.2 external, which easily fits 25mm tires. This one:

Much better wheel than a HED Jet 6, not sure why a wheel just 2 years old would be as cheap as this other guy thinks.
Now given that you can score a set of HED Jet 6+ for 800$, you have to ask yourself if the savings are worth it. That wheel would have to be really cheap (150-200$ and basically new) before I would bite.

Well you face the typical "bottom feeders dilemma" of what features you have to give up in order to save some money (story of my life). That is a nice wheel but 15.5 mm is really narrow. I haven't seen anyone test this wheel with multiple tires, but it is a safe bet that it is going to only work well with a really narrow tire. Make sure you stock up on some Conti SS 20s because there is no guarantee these will be available for too much longer (I have 3 in the basement) That is about the only low Crr narrow tire left on the market.
