If there were an infinite world of tires the wheel decision would be more pure. In reality, a given model of tire is only available in a finite set of sizes. In racing there are usually rules governing what you can do with wheel sizes and what tires you can run.
Within those constraints the best possible choice may be a sub-optimal wheel diameter, to allow for a superior tire and thus overall better wheel/tire combination. |
