By putting wider tires on

By putting wider tires on your car, you have spread out the 3000 pounds over a greater surface area. Your rain, snow, and ice performance will probably be negatively affected by the change. What problem were you trying to solve, or did you just want tires that looked wider? You said your gas mileage didn't go up or down with the new tires. Why did you change sizes?
