My current line of belief:
-tire compound matters most
-tire temperature matters second
-tire size matters last
So sure, wider is better, but only if you get the first 2 right.
I also think R compound tires may 'buck the trend' a bit past a certain point. Whereas 200tw tires hold the rule a bit better.
right on! a narrower hot tire is almost always better than a [censored] cold wide tire. I would add: generally maximize the wheel width then the tire, to actually put the tire against the ground.
