Would that setup be good? I also could go with 30mm deep and same width rims but thought 38mm is a happy compromise since I'm not experienced enough to appreciate full-on aero wheels. THanks!
Aero rims are usually slightly wider than the nominal size of the tires they're intended for; a 25mm-wide rim would usually be paired with maybe a 23mm tire or so. It probably wouldn't really give you aerodynamic benefits with a 28mm or 32mm tire.
