Is there any rule of thumb on this?  Put the 650b wheels on my custom Riv
with 32.8mm Nifty Swifty tires and there is less than 3 inches of clearance
from the crankarm to the floor.

I think it's ridable...if I never pedal through corners.  I'm just afraid
it's going to bite me sometime when I'm tired and not thinking about it.

I suppose bigger tires and shorter crankarms would help some.  There is a
huge amount of clearance available underneath the R559 brakes I installed.
And I'm running 180s now so could go down to 175s or even 170s.  Might be
able to get another 15mm of clearance or so with 170s and 40mm tires.

But anyway :)

Keep the metal side up and the rubber side down!
