Generally speaking, you want to avoid taller gearing (what taller tires will give you). Do you run at any tracks where you reach top speed? If you do reach the car's top speed, is it because you are on the rev-limiter? If not, then you'll gain more from the shorter gearing giving you quicker acceleration.
