Why would you not want to dyno on the wheels you race in?
If you dont you are lying to yourself, I say dyno with the wheels you run in and KNOW waht you have, plus the "bolt on dynos" are NOT the greatest.

small and bigger wheels will NOT make a diffrence on the dyno

[quote name='FikseRxSeven' date='Sep 9 2005, 02:55 AM']so you're saying that running on a dyno on 3rd gear would have no difference as running in 4th gear?

that is correct.
sometimes doing a dyno pull in 3rd gear on a turbo car will yeild in more since the intercooler and the rest of the engine bay can heat soak BEFORE you reach your peak power. this is just an example, but there are also a lot of othet variables that an operator can choose a gear best suited for his/her setup.
