..."thicker", "diameter" and "width" are different things. Go see your LBS and ask them how to fix it. Not hard to do unless you put a 700c rim on the bike.
Sounds like he meansuber-stupid

That the rim is wider... only reason I can think of for the brake being too tight.

Solution is to adjust the cable, but agreed, if english isn't first language, better to have someone else do it, since I wouldn't be able to explain it in simple terms, even though it's a simple procedure.
