If I get worried about range, I can always reduce the width of the tires and go down to a 265 in the rear and a 245 or 255 in the front on the same 20" wheels. That's when I buy the first set of tires
The width of a tire on a 20" wheel will have a minimal effect, if anything noticeable, on range. The issue is the rotating mass of the 20" wheel and tire, remedied by lighter weight wheels, whether forged 20s or cast/forged 19s.
