It's
where the weight of the wheel is. Moving that weight out just an inch from center changes everything. 2.5" out from center effects even more. And
if the 20" wheel/tire weighs more than the 15" wheel/tire, the negative effects are even more.
Its the same with brakes. Going from a 10.75" rotor to a 12" rotor increases braking ability tremendously. The little changes make a big difference in performance.
I like the looks of 20's. I just don't like the sacrifice that goes with them.
