Yeah, kinda what I was thinking...if I'm getting new rims, and they're lightweight, might as well bump up to 18"s. Now, where did all my $$ go?

Correct, a larger diameter of weight requires more power to rotate.

Here is the kicker.

Would a 18" wheel that weighs 25lbs with a 25lb tire outside diameter of 25.9".......

and a 17" wheel that weighs 25lbs with a 25lb tire with a outside diameter of 25.9" be any harder to rotate?

Food for thought!

Take it to the autocross and I'd rather have the extra inch.
