Sorry you're in "a bad mood", but...

Yes, you are going to have to get every tire size for each tire and run the numbers through a 'tire calculator', such as: Tire size calculator

As the tire size goes up, you can actually end up with a smaller diameter tire, e.g. higher RPM at the same speed - not less!
