If they are heavier it will take more energy to get a 19" rim to a certain speed as opposed to a 17" rim, but per rotation your covering more ground with a 19" rim assuming the total diameter including the rubber is larger. So a gsx with 19"s will come out faster in each gear compared to a gsx with say 16"s, but obviously the car with the smaller rims will accelerate quicker. |
