I have Boardman Team Carbon, 2012 model I believe (the one with shimano 105 as stock group). Can anyone who also has it confirm if 25 or maybe even 28 tyres will fit without rubbing?

    I have 25c Corsa Evo CX's on mine and there's still plenty of clearance. I could if you wanted try a 28c in the front from one of my SS bikes but not the rear as they both have a 120mm back end.

    Thank you! I guess the rear would be main concern because it seems tighter there compared to front so i think you don't need to waste your time trying the front 28c.

    No problem.
    I just measured the gap at the closet parts (brake arch/seat tube/front mech) and I personally think a 28mm may fit, it would be pretty close though so I won't say for sure.

    Got some 28c tyres (Hutchinson) and they fit nicely.
