Bikes: 1984 Fuji Club, Suntour ARX; 2013 Lynskey Peloton, mostly 105 with Ultegra rear derailleur, Enve 2.0 fork; 2020 Masi Giramondo 700c, full Deore with TRP dual piston mech disk brakes

Check your distance you now have between the brakes when fully opened and the tire, if its tight then you probably won't have enough space; having said that most bicycles come from the factory with tires that are in the middle range of what the rim and the bike can handle, which should give you at least a 2mm leeway toward a wider tire. One poster mentioned fenders, that does play an important part on whether or not you can go up one size.
