The lighter the wheel the less ground resistance you'll have. If you're looking for a fast wheel go with something really light and narrow in the back, and something light, wide and a grippy tire up front.

If you're looking to go fast I wouldn't put more than an 18" wheel on it. Also I don't believe run flats are the lightest tires...
