Here's what I have done, and wished I had done. Also what I have observed of others. My building has 6 bays 40 foot deep by 17 foot wide running the length of the building. I made my doors 16 foot wide and they are either wider then necessary or too narrow depending on the equipment. Do it again I will make the doors 15 foot wide--WHY? Highway lanes are 14 foot wide and you need enough space to back the equipment in. If your equipment folds it should fit in a highway lane. Non folding stuff will be too wide so I will put one 20 foot door in one end just for the wide stuff. Good question--center or offset. I have noticed that those with the centered door park their stuff on each side of the center aisle. If it is offset the aisle just runs along one wall. It's your decision. Which ever you decide you'll find reasons to do it different the next time.
