I tried searching but not many threads for 2500HD pickup tires

Does a larger wheel with smaller sidewall help or hinder rolling resistance?

Which one of these wheel sizes would likely have the lowest rolling resistance of these sizes in the same tire (Michelin LTX M/S 2).

265/75r16, 48lb tire weight, 31.7" tall, 80PSI max

265/70r17, 48lb tire weight, 31.7" tall, 80PSI max

265/60r20, 50LB tire weight, 32.5" tall, 80PSI max

Thanks!!
