I'm firmly in Joe's camp.

I use Challenge Paris Roubaix tires on my Rambouillet. They are labelled
27mm but measure 29.5mm. My fenders are Berthoud carbon fiber, only 25mm
wide, but then this is my good weather bike. I would not recommend anything
wider than these tires with any fender on the Rambouillet. 33.3mm would be
very dangerous, in my opinion. If this were my bad weather bike, I'd be
using the same tires but with the 41mm Stronglight anodized aluminum
fenders.
