The energy loss by putting bigger yires can be overcome by gearing.

It's the same with trucks. If you are stock with 235/75r15's and go to 33's, it throws everything off the torque curve. But regearing axles to 3.73 or 4.10's, it balances out and there is no power loss.

I too am interested in spoke wheels.
