Is There a Benefit to Heavy Wheels?
I've been doing some reading on old threads about the benefit of minimizing the weight of the wheels. The two reasons is obviously just reducing the overall weight of the vehicle, but also because the lighter the item that you are trying to spin the easier it will be to spin it, therefore, requiring less energy. (Do I have this right?)
My question, which I can't seem to find, is if there is ever a time that heavier wheels are actually a benefit. For example, in rainy/wet conditions or snow, sand, or gravel, etc.
