Maybe a no.

I've got superlows as well, and get some scrubbing. If I was going for a show car, then yeah, ultras would be the go. But as I like to through mine around mountains and tracks, supers is it (for up front).

Why would different diameter wheels make a difference. The tyre's profiles would be different to make the same rolling circumference - ie. the tyre is still the same size on the outside.

Different WIDTH wheels/tyres however will make a difference. eg. going from 15x6.5s to 17x8s.
