how could he experience power decrease ? you mean depending on the weight of the rim and tyre its mass effects its moment of inertia.

most 16" rims are of newer design and there weights are lighter in most cases than some old school lump. also 16" being a more common size now than 15" and 14" you can get the latest tyres which once again are lighter.

i have gone from 205/50/15 semis on works rims to 225/45/16 semis on r32gtr rims and there is a .25kg increase in weight and over 12% per tyre area more

but why hasn't anyone thought about the fitting problems with such small inner guard areas ?
