In cornering, when camber changes and weight shifts off the wheel, you can imagine this strip of contact patch narrowing to a small area, as opposed to a narrower tyre where a more elongated section of contact patch would theoretically remain.

Basically, there is an optimal width tyre for each application, taking into account the other factors such as weight and suspension geometry. Once you go wider than that you are changing contact patch shape during cornering, but with a less optimal result.

This is also dependent on suspension settings of course.
