Are they the same diameter tire ?
If they grip more , it could heat up your esc /motor so it could be worth dropping a tooth . Only way to check is with a thermometer .
Do you have a brass pinion ? They are known to fail so might be worth getting a better one .
I think there might be a steel upgrade spur if you really need it , but I would stick to plastic to start .
