IMO, there is two ways to resolve this is to wear down the pads slowly or get some brake callipers that can take 28mm wide rims and with my limited research the only I can find that would fit are the EE brakes.
OR, hear me out (no, really), there are pads that are thinner, designed for wider rims like the Shimano R55C4-1, saving you £490.
Bear in mind that these pads were aimed for their own brakes that are designed to be compatible with wider rims.

I did notice one thing, (sort of my fuck up) with these massively wider rims of 28mm my TRP callipers are struggling to fit/enagage it’s functionality when pressing the brake levers as there is not much movement, which is not surprising as on the data sheet from TRP the max they can take is 27mm. This is only the issue when the brake pads are brand spanking new and will get better once there is less pad.

From memory I think @Dammit had a set of these, I have heard mixed reviews on them and for around £500 for a set of brake callipers are they really worth it?
