you parasitic loss will increase as well as a decrease in aero dyamics and handling

the aerodynamics and handling will all be based on the shape of the wheel and width/offset etc., but parasitic loss could definitely be quite a bit depending on weight.

Yes but if you raise your car up this will let more air underneath the car..true?

Correct, although, Rabbit did not mention whether or not suspension was also installed. For all we know, this thing could be sitting on the ground, lol.
