Yes I picked up power but with the same wheels if I take them to the track I would run slower times with them cause of no traction then I would with my old 20's. Now my new 18's is a different story. lol

Look, I don't want to be rude to you, but sometimes we can't decide if you're trolling or seriously misinformed and some of your comments are so way off base at times it's crazy.

I asked you to explain how you came to determine your thoughts on the subject matter, and here you flip on me to prove you wrong? Seems a bit backwards to me.

But to simply answer your question, Jeff picked up power by simply decreasing the amount of rotating mass on his wheels allowing them to turn much easier. Reducing weight is just as good as making more power.

My forged 20's are lighter than your cast 18 inch wheels. The only argument you could possibly make is that a 20 inch wheel could change gearing if the same tire height was used, but it's not. By using a lower profile tire with my 20, the gearing is very near the same as it was with the stock 19 inch wheels/tires. So really, you are just incorrect and your argument is null and void.
