Which Tires are Fastest?

[RivCCR]

My understanding is that the 20" are the slowest.
But which are fastest off the line, 22" or 21"?

Thanks!

I do not think we have seen anyone do a good comparison test. But the 22's should be a bit grippier and therefore a bit quicker off the line. But I would not expect a huge difference. Probably no more than 0.1s 0-60 difference.

Well in terms of rotational velocity the 20”s are “the fastest”.

Having had 21's and now running 20's. I will say my seat-of-my-butt-meter says the 21's were faster. Not only faster, but better range and handling as well. But vanity wins out every time. The 20's just look better. ?

I think the 22's are slightly faster than the 21's but it's close. The 20's are slower than both by a bit. Keep in mind we are talking extremely quick speeds for all 3 to begin with. You're quicker than pretty much anything else on the road by a good margin with any of the offered tires.
