recommendations for wider 26" rims / wheels?

My 26" rims are worn and will need replacing soon. It seems there are a lot of cheap rims and wheels available that are around 19mm in internal width, but wider ones (eg >25mm) with a braking surface are less common. I was hoping to run 2.4 or 2.5" tyres, but it looks like setting that up will be quite a bit more expensive. Maybe I can get away with a 2.4" tyre on a narrow rim? It's a fully rigid bike so I figure it would be worth trying bigger tyres. Any thoughts?
