How do you figure that? Wheel diameter would definitely change your wheel gap.

Your hub is a constant distance from the wheel arch so any wheel/tire combo that increases or decreases overall diameter should have an effect on wheel gap.

I know for a fact that, with all things equal, when I stepped down from 19in to 18in rims my wheel gap increased. Yes, I feel ridiculously low and I started scraping in places I didn't before.
