As Karl stated, the infokey will still show speed based on wheel rpm, but because the circumference of the bigger tires is greater than stock size, you are actually going faster at the same rpm. Performance seems otherwise relatively unaffected, maybe a little slower to accelerate, but barely noticeable. The machine is taller, so better ground clearance. For comfort and traction, I stay with the 4-5 psi. If I need maximum range, I increase it to almost 10 psi.
I only use this configuration for off-road or other open spaces, as it is much too large to mix with urban conditions, doorways, and many spaces. For that, I convert it back to i2 configuration.
