As the title suggests was wondering what advantages/disadvantages larger rims have? As far as I can tell it would seem you can get a little more rubber on the road and less side wall flex with larger rims and then lower profile tyres but on the other hand you add more mass to get rolling and increased cost of tyres (not to mention the rims) and potentialy reduce ride comfort on rough roads. Opinions?
PS The way it looks is not part of this question as asthetic appeal is in the eye of the beholder not because Giavani thinks it's "sic mate".
