i was always told, the bigger the rim, the harder the engine works to turn it. meaning your revs will be off by a bit, the bigger the rim you have. the smaller the rim the easier it is for the engine to turn the wheel because of the smaller diameter.

the weight of the rims of course add to that as well. city driving +heavy huge rims = bad miliage. stop and go traffic will eat your gas specially with a heavy car. let alone, you guys all drive the C which of course has a bigger enginge.

im just stating what i was told, so dont quote me on what i say cuz im not sure myself.
