..is a 54 too wide for a 2.6?

Or should I bite the bullet and get something else (like a Flow) instead?

Yes
I would go with a Sentry or a Baron rim

Will you die? No.
Is it ideal? No.

I run 2.6 on Flows.

I am not an advocate of going too wide on the rim, it squares off the tyre which I find messes (sp) with the feel especially the transition into corners.

Stans Wide right page has it about plumb I reckon.
