I am wondering if a wider wheel and tire can be added to my sidecar. If you've done it, what size tire & wheel should I look for?

I've been running a BFGoodrich Radial T/A All-Season Radial Tire - P155/80R15 83S on a trailer wheel for several years. A trailer hub fits the axle. Coupled with a wheel spacer, the combo clears the shock/coilover. Downside - the tire extends past the rim of the fender and you can't use the the original brake. In the second pic you can see a groove in the tread. A shock broke and dropped the edge of the fender on the tire at speed. This shows how much the tire sticks out.
