Yes it will affect your lap times compared to 18" or 17" options. Exactly how much, I do not know. The larger the rim in diameter, the higher the rolling resistance is for the wheel. You can try to minimize the effects by running the lightest (& strongest) rims you can buy.

You'll also face a limited selection of rubber VS 18".
