before the car could not go around corner that fast.
c16 was nice at pickup
but not good for high speed or corners :thumbsdown:c19 is faster and better on corners.
In the end the car dose not feel slow at all.

slightly heavier wheels are:
stronger, and have better
rotational mass
but need a bit extra push for inertia and are less accurate turning in around corners.
if you have ridden bikes you will know that heavier wheel cycles as soon as you get them moving will
move faster each time you pedal, but the lighter wheel ones need a bit more oomph to move faster- in a straight line
i'm not a technician but i think the same thing applies
