i would like to lower the FDR but i know we're limited to max 20T pinion.
i'm currently using this tire: http://sweepracing.com/?p=274

if i use the touring size rubber tire: http://sweepracing.com/?p=232, would this help out on my top end?

Sure you'll gain more top end speed!! Make sure u re-check your ride height and temp as well. Bigger tyre might not be a better choice than mini tyre. Handling wise you'll need to test different set up on touring size rubber...
