Default Wheel size and dyno

Does wheel size have an effect on numbers produced by a dyno?

no neither a hub dyno or a roller dyno will be affected. The flywheel horsepower numbers may be off a bit given the fact they are calculated using a certian degree of loss. which larger or heavier wheels will have small small effect on.
this is all to the best of my knowledge

If you go on a dynojet then wheel size will have an effect but depending on the sizes it wont be much. No more then a 5hp throw off.

Dynopack doesnt matter.
