      Proper wheel width

      I've decided on the tire sizes for my car (335/30/18 and 315/30/18). Getting ready to order some Forgelines for it, and I'm curious about wheel widths. For instance, the 315 tire will fit a wheel from 10.5" - 11.5", per the manufacturer. For a street car that will see a lot of track time, what is the "best" wheel width? I've been told to go with the widest wheel possible, but don't really understand the reasons. Don't know if it's important or not, but if I had to pick between ride comfort and performance, I'd lean towards the latter.

      TIA
