Large diameter wheels end up making a vehicle ride smoother because they rise over bumps more gradually.
However, larger wheels are also heavier and have more gyroscopic force (the tendancy to stay rolling the same direction) so larger diameter wheels can be harder to change direction (fast turn-in to a corner). This effect is very noticeable in bicycles and motorcycles.
Using a bike with small wheels for city commuting offers advantages such as increased maneuverability in tight spaces, easier storage in small areas, and quicker acceleration from stops.
Using small pulley wheels in a mechanical system can provide advantages such as increased mechanical advantage, reduced friction, and the ability to fit into tight spaces.
The 18 inch wheels have very large surface area which reduces the pressure that the car exerts on the road.
Is it dangersous to cook using a small pot or pan on a large electric burner?
Large and small shapes
Advantages of using small bike wheels for urban commuting include easier maneuverability in tight spaces, lighter weight for easier carrying, and potentially faster acceleration. Disadvantages may include a rougher ride over bumps, less stability at high speeds, and potentially slower overall speed compared to larger wheels.
