Yeah, if you think about the physics of it, you can relate to holding a balloon only by the knot at the bottom and pushing it from side to side with the other hand....compared to holding it with your whole hand over a much wider surface area.
Smaller cross section of the holding area allows more wobble. The 42 Cazaderos I’ve mounted on my Dyads are only 2mm over Velocity’s recommended max, and I can assure you that’s insignificant, from a holding and performance perspective. Wider tires on smaller rim widths will increase the roundness of the tire’s profile, which is insignificant unless the tread pattern changes markedly towards the outside of the tire. You may get a more abrupt change in steering as you lean that tire over in sharp corners because the tread is different. But not so on a consistent tread. Lastly, lower tire pressures will amplify the above. But again, only if you’re talking about tire widths way over the max recommended.
