Smaller wheel, bigger effort.

however faster turning...

have you ever seen a formulae fords steering wheel? very very small for tight turnin... It really comes down to weighing up the extra effort against the faster trunin capabilities. Also weither you have arnies biceps to turn the bloody thing after putting on a wheel with a 10cm diametre :P

Small wheel is heaps better for drifting aswell.

not that you should be doing a great deal of drifting in a kombi!!!
would be cool though.
