You have to decide.... wider tire = more float but also more weight
Heavier tire typically more durable (if we talk about brand name tires), but, well, heavier.

If you are tubeless and the terrain isn't too bad, it may be OK.

I'm more concerned with lower BB by going to smaller tires. But you get more standover clearance.
