Fortress Clutched April 8, 2006 Share April 8, 2006 Am waiting to hear about the high FC... thereafter besides spending the money. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightspeed Clutched April 8, 2006 Share April 8, 2006 Not necessarily... bigger rims doesn't mean worse FC as you'll be surprised, some 18"s are lighter than 17"s, depends on the weight of the tyres as well Of 'cos gotta factor in the rolling resistance as well... Bigger rims more contact... but still feel it boils down to the weight Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortress Clutched April 9, 2006 Share April 9, 2006 You are absolutely. However, 17" versus 18", generally will be heavier. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
