Interesting. My instinct would be that if wider tires allow lower pressure, that would put less stress on the rims (and I assume you mean the tube pressure between the rim sidewalls pushing the sidewalls apart and cracking due to that), but I could be wrong. Maybe larger tire sidewall area means for same pressure, more force to push outward on rims.
