Thats right 17 wheels are heavier and will make your car slower. Also say you spin the wheel on a launch. The heavier tires are gonna spin more because they have more momentum keeping them spinnging. In a smaller lighter wheel wheelspin wont be as bad. Also the larger wheel you get the more your gearing gets messed with. The bigger the wheel the more you increase your final drive gear ratio decreasing your torque multiplication. a 16in wheel is considered the blend between looks and performance. Im lookin at a set of Kosei K1 Racing 16''.
