The sierra's gearing is crap in the first place so its gonna be worse with larger tyres on.

My gearing is pretty horrible in the coily on 30's. I have a better engine to cope but I still have to use 3rd to accerlerate up hills even with double the power of the stock engine.

it should be ok. it wont be ideal gearing but you will be fine untill you upgrade to bigger rubber. you just have to learn better car control. crawling will be difficult.
