Since the difference between the weight of the smaller vs larger rim-diameter tires is very similar, and most of their weight is at the tread, they don't make much difference in terms of inertia.
However, because rims have a good bit of their weight in the hoop, and the larger the rim the further away from the center that weight goes, the more inertia the larger rim has. My racing rims are 13x7.5 Lenso's and my street rims are 15x7 Motegi Traklite 2's :) |

Does anybody know the weight of the stock 15" rims. I saw someone else ask but didn't see an answer. Don't mean to reask but curious.
