Wheel sizing vs. power question

Okay increasing diameter of the wheels will allow for bigger brakes, increase turn-in response, reduce acceleration but increase top speed.

Also well a 17inch rims and 18 inch rim may have the same rolling diameter (difference in sidewall height) and mass. Having more of the mass near the outside of the wheel will hurt performance compared to having more the mass near the center of the wheel. So going with a lighter weight tire helps a lot.
