less surface of the tire contacting to the road = less friction. taller tires have to rotate less than smaller tires, creating a higher gear ratio (when they're on the drive wheels, meaning the front of a front wheel drive car and rear of a rear wheel drive car) just be careful because this could knock your speedometer outta wack a little.
