Absolutely no idea. I didn't hack away at my red gears because I wasn't sure it would work. You are right though in that wider, grippier tires will slow the car down, but you should gain better control. The goal for me is to have more traction, so I can run slightly faster but with more power and no spinouts, versus going really fast and painting the outside retaining walls.
