I'd just run slightly narrower tires to keep the speed up, but use r-comps or something else similarly grippy. The rolling diameter is a factor, but the big issue with wider tires is the rolling resistance and simply air resistance.

Oil starvation isn't really a big deal without super sticky tires. Fuel starvation will happen in long left hand turns, but not a huge deal when completely stock since the fuel usage is lower than when modded. The fuel starve issue gets worse if you run an E85 tune as it's simply using more fuel out of the swirl pot.
