Performance Wheels! 2006 OEM 17" vs. 2006 Sport Oem 19" Rays

Hi guys.
I'm focusing on increasing my straight line acceleration and 1/4 mile time and would like to know what would provide for better times/acceleration. The lightweight (19lbs) 19" oem rays or the base 2006 oem 17" rims. Weight vs. design/dimensions, what would provide for a faster car?

Thanks guys

Wouldn't a bigger diameter result in less rpm...so car would take longer to reach speeds?

The diameter that you want to be concerned with is tire diameter, not wheels diameter
