Does a wider tire always mean better grip?

Running my stock C6 rims with Toyo R888 for HPDE 3 & 4.

Toyo says 245/40 is recommended for the front over the wider 255/35 which they say will also work.

Idk, fat chicks usually try harder...but I digress

Do you think the tire is more likely or less likely to roll over if it is wider than the rim it is mounted on?

Would a size smaller give me better performance?

What effect do you think crowning has on a tire

Last year I ran Toy888's on my stock C6 rims for HPDE. Sizes were 305/30-19 and 265/35-18. The Toyo's are said to run wide. That being said there was quite a bit of crowning, where the tire bowed out...

Hi, on a budget so looking for inexpensive 18" rims I can use for HPDE events. I think 18 x10 and 18 x 11 is what was recommended.
The dirtier the better guys, looking for a good deal, thanks!
