Right. Wider tires are heavier.
...and all things arent equal. Thats a pretty key disclaimer that all too often just doesnt get mentioned.
Tire pressure isnt going to be the same, therefore all things arent equal.
I am all on board the wider tire train, but I dont kid myself that 'wider is faster' is accurate. It can be in some cases, but its hardly a statement that should be made without some important disclaimers in the same sentence.
