16" vs. 17" wheels; which is faster in the 1/4? Assume a mostly bolt on ls1. Both tires wrapped in a drag radial. Keeping everything the same, which tire will run the faster et? mph? How big of a role does the rotating mass play?

It deals with 18's and 19's but some dork went into a physics explanation about how it all works. <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0">
