Find another Mechnaical Engineer and ask them and they will tell you the same without even thinking about.

from a purely M.E. standpoint, tire width doesn't play a factor in the amount of friction force, it's purely the coefficient of friction and the mass. we all know that's not true in the real world though.
lighter wheels allow the suspension to react quicker and that is was gives better grip. if your tires are up in the air after a bump, you have no grip.
