Does wheel width matter?

For your safety, and for the optimal ride, your rim width and tire size must be compatible. Why? Because the rim width has a direct impact on your tire’s contact patch, which changes how the tire interacts with the road and how your vehicle handles.

Can you put a different tire size on the same rim?

Tires are a part of the wheel setup. For instance, your vehicle has a set size of rims, but you can buy different sizes of tires to fit those rims, as long as the middle of the tires is the correct size. That being said, a vehicle with bigger rims will often be able to fit larger tires than other vehicles.

Does tire size affect horsepower?

The rotational inertia, which factors in the mass of the wheel, is likely contributing to the difference. Most simply put, heavier wheels and tires means less power realized against the road.
