With 25s + guards there was overlap, with 28s + guards there was considerably more overlap.
The era that the frame is from, it was probably very rare that people were running anything bigger than 23s.
Toeverlap is more of a problem with the guards than tyres as tyres just buzz your foot, mudguards get bent and rip out of their fittings.
I expect you'll be fine.
We're mudguards really the difference between 32s and 23s? I was hoping a bike that could fit 35s without guards would be able to fit 32s, or at worst 28s with them...
