Do you have to fit a lower profile tyre than standard when you increase wheel diameter so that the overall diameter of the wheel and tyre combined does not increase, for instance if you had standard 15" wheels with 60 profile tyres, you would change to 16" but fit 55 profile, or 17" and 45 profile, not to certain of the ins and outs of this but it does ring a bell.
