On average people are too dumb to understand what rotational inertia is, that is why just weight (technically it should list mass instead) is listed. I=mr^2 so for a given mass as the distance from the axis of rotation increases the resistance to rotation will go up exponentially. The tire is ignored because it is assumed the same on every wheel.
