Bigger Wheels And Smaller Wheels Which Speed Most At Same Acceleration? by Joel3(m): 12:57pm On Feb 01, 2016
for the mathematicians

but you have to consider these point.

1. it take more pressure to pull bigger wheels than smaller wheels. this means it consumes more acceleration force or pressure.

2. bigger wheels at 360 degree beat smaller wheels in meters.

3. it takes less acceleration to pull smaller wheels

4. smaller wheels spin more faster but need enough acceleration to achieved a good speed.

now over to you guys.

At the same revolution per unit time, a bigger wheel will cover more distance due to its circumfrence. But if equal force is applied on both, the smaller wheel will achieve more revolution per unit time.

If we factor in air resistance. A bigger wheel is more likely to be affected than a smaller wheel. So in my opinion, a smaller wheel car is relatively faster than a bigger wheel car

nice observations. I mean equal acceleration capacity. I just edit the subject now. need more input from other experience expert.

I don't even understand the question.

But maybe if you rephrase it I can be of help.

I've owned cars with 10" to 22" tires.
