I'm more worried about cassette and brake rotor compatibility.
That rim has an internal width of 21mm. According to the current ETRTO chart (found here:Tire Dimensions | Schwalbe North America) the smallest tire you should use is 35mm. While to chart may be a little conservative, 25mm may be pushing it.
