I have the same only 25's instead of 28's. I am 6' and 240 plus about 20# of computer, lunch, cola's... If your commute is not long I would go with the widest possible just for comfort. I bought these at the beginning of the summer and have about 1500 miles on them. No flats, no real wear, but I wish they were a little wider. The lbs talked me into narrow for speed. I had the 28's before these and do not see that much difference but I do feel it.
