Do I inflate differently for these two scenarios?
Yes, the 23mm tire on the wider rim will measure the same width but have lower volume than the 25mm tire on the narrower rim, but more than a 23mm tire on a 15c rim. It ends up falling somewhere inbetween in terms of volume so inflation pressure should be inbetween the two.
