It depends on the wheel design and where the weight is located. The smaller wheel might have more mass at the rim while the larger wheel may have more at the hub giving the larger wheel an acceleration advantage.
Similar consideration for the TRD BBK material aluminum vs. steel, one piece vs. two and where that weight is located.
Then alignment plays a part. Factory spec front toe-in can be easily changed to toe-out that will improve steering response.
