Any rim that can take one 700C tire will take any other 700C tire, after a fashion. But just because the tire will fit the rim doesn't guarantee that the tire will fit in the frame or fork.

23C to 28C isn't much of a difference, but if you go crazy wide there's a risk that the wider tire won't sit that well on a narrow rim.

Is 700MM bicycle tire fits 27 inch bicycle rim?

No. A 700 C rim has a bead seat diameter of 622 mm, while a 27" rim has a bead seat diameter of 630 mm. If you use excessive force it might be possible to mount the tire, but it won't sit well. On www.sheldonbrown.com there's a nice section about tire sizes.


What is the conversion for a 700 series bicycle tire in inches?

It's best not to use tire sizes in inches, as there are often several different sizes in the same inch designation. Safest is the ETRTO size in millimeters, where 700C = ETRTO 622 mm. If you insist, 700C will usually be a 28" - but there are at least two sizes starting with 28".

Which tire is faster a 23 x 700 or a 25 x 700?

It's not that easy to tell. Generally, a thinner tire will be more aerodynamic than a wider tire, but there's more to speed than aerodynamics - rolling resistance for instance. A wider tire with less rolling resistance can be a faster choice than a narrower tire with higher rolling resistance. And there's tire pressure too. With a narrower tire, you'll need to run higher pressure to avoid pinch flats. With higher pressure the ride gets bouncier. And each bounce will turn some of your speed into an upward motion, losing you both speed and traction for the moment.
