Personally, for barspins I like using a 26" MTB wheel with a skinny slick tire on it. If you can almost clear with a 700c, you definitely can with a 26". It does look a little goofy, but it's cheaper, burlier, and softer to land on than a 650c because usually you have a bigger tire option. I just don't know how it'll work width-wise on your fork.

Just putting that out there.
