Also calling it a component mismatch sounds fair. There is no pressure you could achieve where manufacturer requirements of both tyre and rim would be satisfied. Free tyres sounds pretty cheeky.
I don't agree - wider rims mean lower pressure surely, manufacturer advice is based on standard width rims afaik.
