Bikes: a bunch

There is a bunch of info on the web about tire width, aero, rolling resistance, and on... We all have our opinions. Some colored by 'science', some just our own prejudices or impressions.
If I was doing what you're doing, I would go to the manufacturers for the wheels you are considering purchasing. If they have some strong science and experience in performance wheels (like ZIPP or HED), aero and the use intent; give them info about you and the use intent. They prolly have tire preference/optimum for the wheels you are considering and will suggest and reinforce their suggestion.
If you're gonna buy some wheels from some source which doesn't have that experience, then don't expect much beyond what you already know.
You gotta start somewhere, and tire selection can always change...
Ride On
