A harder ride 'tends' to indicate less friction between the tire and the road, so I suspect the added width doesn't overwhelm that aspect.

not really, harder ride because there is a lot less tire to absorb the variations in the road. Friction is hopefully the same or more then your normal tire, but the alloy wheels are generally a bit lighter, which all evens out at the end.
