Good rules of thumb. Do those rules apply to all hooked bead rims?

I was digging around because my new ride came with rims that measure 18mm inside, and I was wondering if I could mount 700 x 28 tires on them. Fortunately, they're a good match. I'll ride the stock Turbo Pros for a while, and then make the change.
