No. Iron Cross are limited. Crest will do road pressures.
Reading around this @Howard appears to be wrong and @amey seems to be right - see warning sticker on the Crest rims:
(That's on a 29er rim, apparently).
I presume 1.0 = 1", 1.5 = 1.5" etc? Does this apply to non-tubeless use though?
But I've found the wheelbuilding thread so it makes more sense to ask more questions about this wheel build there.

Grail are intended for road/gravel usage I think.

Hah, thanks mate. I'll just leave this here.
@dancing james 's commuto-cross. He's since moved to Pacenttis (sp?)
The pressures on the rim are the pressures for tubless MTB tyres - as is the intended application of Crest.
Amey - before he edited his post - suggested Iron Cross, which are definitely not compatible with road pressures.
Although he's right in that Grail might be worth exploring.

You're tiny and light, the Crest will be fine on you.

Yes, the tube makes no material difference to the hoop stress in the tyre carcase, which is what's trying to tear the rim apart.
