well, need to keep thinking

In that case, try to find wheels that have as much weight near the hub as possible. The farther out you go on the wheel with weight, the more rotational mass the car has to overcome to turn the wheel, which makes you go slower
FWIW you could probably find a set of magnesium wheels in 18", but they're very expensive and if you ever hit a curb you'll bend the wheel. The advantage is that they're LIGHT.
