I've ran on these shoes about half a dozen times now ranging from 2.5 to 4.5 miles with no problems so far.  I highly recommend ASICS shoes for comfort and stability.  I also have wide feet and ASICS tends to offer shoes in wide widths.  I was running on ASICS Gel Cumulus 9, but I have to say the Nimbus 9 is a superior shoe.  The Cumulus' were great, but my feet could only handle about 3.5 miles before I would get some numbness in my feet.  My shins were also starting to hurt towards the tail end of my use, probably caused by the shoe breaking down and me running on them longer than its lifespan.  The Nimbus feels like a higher quality shoe with better comfort than the Cumulus.  I'll definitely be sticking with ASICS and probably stay with the Nimbus over the Cumulus.
