If you use larger rims on the above setup, then brake performance will deteriorate
I understand the principle of leverage, but isn't the weight of the car that is being stopped a much more overriding factor? In other words, ya gotta stop 700kg, what difference does the rim diameter make? Larger-diameter tires will usually give a flatter contact patch and improve braking. Or am I looking at this wrong?
