It affects the tire in the manner that the tire is not allowed to flex as much sideways as it will on a 4 or 4,5" rim. In the most extreme case, the tire can come off the rim bead because of the side force on the tire's side wall. On the other hand (as mentioned in the other reply) the tire will seem a lost firmer.How does it affect the tyres to be on a wide rim? I thought it was OK as long as the tyres are wider than the rim?
