I have a Lectric X Premium with 4x20 wheels. Can I put the 3 inch tires from the Lectric Cargo bike onto my 4 inch rims?

I been fine, just thinking on getting rid of those squishy low pressure balloon tires and replacing them with more of a street tread with higher pressure rating to roll a little easier with my behemoth weight (260lb). Wasnt sure if my rims were too wide for a narrower tire

I don't do big 20" wheels, but if it were me I'd be looking for something with a thick tread. If its a street bike, something with a semi-slick tread. I can link stuff I like the looks of but thats not going to be experience talking.
