There are very fewchinese d2c manufacturers making rims like that. Farsports make some gravel rims that wide, nextie, lightbicycle. Though the profiles aren't the best aerodynamically, particularly nextie. Ideally you want the rim edge to be wider than the tyre and then the rim to ulge out a bit before tapeting off so the cross section of the tire and rim is as eliptical as possible.

Speed carbon has such rims (Peter from speed carbon on the forum)
Yuanan as well (OEM for Elite, also on the forum)
Farsports for sure
Basically you want rims that are at least 31-32-33-34mm wide.

Hi, thanks a lot for your fast replies

Are there any wider rims with more then 25mm internal as this seems to be the sweetspot for 28mm tires, i guess 28mm would be perfect internally.

What's your suggestion

Thanks mates

28mm internal would be insane and not at all fit for 28c tyres. You don't really wan't a crazy wide internal anyway

Look into gravel wheels. I just got a set of Elitewheels that are 35x31. There are some MTB wheels that are even wider but they are not very aero (and often have a very high spoke count)
