Don't confuse the nominal width of the mounted tire with the actual (inside) width of the rim itself.

Once you remove that tire and measure the rim, you can refer to any of the rim/tire width guidelines, like this one, available on the net.
Note, these are only guidelines and there's plenty of latitude at either extreme.
