no probs!
if you want a bit wider rim building them yourself is going to be cheaper. a lot of cheap ready-made sets are with aging 14mm inner width rims and the more hi-end builds with archetypes or tb14's go north of 250pounds I think. I'd guess around 200 pounds is somewhat doable if you find a good deal on archetypes, easily on adhn.
wider rim supports the wider tire a lot better.
