I am not saying about weight of the wheels. I totally agree that the lighter the wheel the better obviously. What I am meant was a too wide wheel will make the car stick to the road more and it takes more power to propel the car. Imagine two bicycles, one racing and another mountain bike. One has very thin tires and the other wide ones. It is obvious it is hard to peddle the mountain with the wider tires.
There has to be a balance. An all out wide tire does not necessary mean better performance.
