I used everything from 25mm Continental Gatorskins to 35mm Innova studded winter tires on those rims.

If you're not doing any off-road riding, consider a slicker tire than those ones you linked to. I've become a big fan of the Pasela TG. I ride 32mm tires (on a wider rim, now, but I did use them on DT RR1.1 rims which are the same size as the DA16) and I've even taken them on a 14 mile unpaved mountain pass road here in the Cascades.
