Rims.. How wide is it worth going?

[Capt.Gumby]

Spent a fair bit of coin upgrading to a decent set of "All Mountain" wheels. Original set where wide, went the same brand but upgraded to a better quality. 7 years of riding the same area/tracks etc but never had an issue until going wide rims..... bike is 160mm travel though so might be pushing it a bit harder than the previous 140mm travel bikes..... Just disappointed..... weren't cheap.

What brand and model rims are they? without being able to rule out the rim durability/structure, it's not calling a spade a spade, might be a shovel.
