Clearance for regular, full-sized lenticular RALTech covers was very very tight on mine (with a 23mm wide rear rim). Needed to chop the cover down so the braking surface was exposed, and there wasn't enough clearance for the plastic fasteners, so had to use double-sided sticky foam tape under the covers, sealed with electrical tape on the outside. Even then, the wheel had to be positioned a fair way back in the dropouts, although your PM rims might be more narrow and less of an issue.
To be safe, try to find the 'low profile', wobbly covers (if fitting to existing wheels), or combine a cover with a deep carbon rear rim :-)

I'm not sure yet. Both the clinchers and tubs are Pete Matthew's built with tasty 90s hubs (Hope and Zeus) and flat rolled spokes, so some nice provenance there. On the other hand, I could sell them to help fund a trispoke and raltech. Suginos might get traded in for a Pistard Air too at some point.
