I use 7900 calipers on my Rapid Tour and they clear 32mm (Conti GP5000) comfortably.
This discussion affirms that 7900 brakes use the latest pull ratio.

I just wanted to post a follow-up and a big thank you to Look585 - I picked up a pair of 7900 calipers and they have more clearance than the 7800 calipers I had on before, and way more clearance than the r8000 brakes I was afraid to run. They clear these 32s comfortably, brake just as well as I'd expect dura ace brakes to brake (i.e., excellently), and the lever pull feels just right.
