If you're building up a new bike, it's worth using wider rims that are more ideal for wider tires (not to mention a frame designed for long-reach or cantilever brakes). But 28's will run just fine on narrow road rims. Your main issue, as others have mentioned, will be clearance under the brake calipers.
