The trend of 18-inch rims in open-wheel single-seater formula auto racing now has been grown because of revolutionary.

I would love of IndyCar Series using 18-inch rims in the future as a reference of road-relevance. The 18-inch wheel rim in motorsport usually used majorly in sports car racing (including endurance) and touring car racing. NASCAR Cup Series also will expected to switch to 18-inch rims as Gen 7 Cup cars officially arrived.

I haven't read anything that suggests IndyCar will switch to 18'' wheels. However, with everyone else switching and a new chassis coming online in 2024/25, I don't see why the wheel manufacturers would want to make a special case for IndyCar and continue with the current wheel spec. The cost alone, just for one racing series would be hard to justify.
