15/16 rim or 16/17 rim?

I know some people are running 15/16 rims. I am just wondering what the advantage is to run on smaller diameter rims? One thing I can think of is making the car lower. That is good for person like me that needs to drive car then swap tires at the event. Other than that, what is the benefit to run on smaller rims? Weight saving? Please elaborate.
