With 700C rims, you have a lot of options of excellent rims. Just avoid the
usual suspects that don't work well in 650B, and you'll be fine. A wider
rim obviously is a plus...
Just to be clear, the seating issue of many 650B wheels isn't a fault of
the tires, but of the poorly designed rims,
I have Challenge open tubular - clinchers - on 4 bikes. I like these tires
but have found them difficult to seat on All rims, Synergy included, but
not exceptionally so.
Have discovered that after the tubes stretch a bit, it's much easier to
re-seat the tire beads.

David, Nice blog post, but I'm not complaining - I love them, and don't
have a problem mounting them. My problems are amplified by my fondness for
latex tubes - they're trickier to mount with these tires than butyl - but
system is working for me.
