Having a very low center of gravity certainly should help along with a very stiff structure. I'm not sure how much wider of a tire would fit in the wheel well (it has a fairly tight turning radius), but wider certainly would hurt the range both from rolling resistance and wind resistance. I think in the near term, finding alternate tires may be tough. Being a city car, it may not see the miles a more traditional vehicle would, so it may be awhile before they're needed, and more choices may show up.

Still very narrow Id be sliding all over the place driving this car.
I swapped to stickier rubber on our Leaf and it made a world of a difference.
