Yeah, as Jim says, the wheels are all the same it's just that the tyres are trued down to 58mm to better suit the micros.

but if your track has lots of big air jumps you may want to keep the full touring car diameter as the cars can take these easily and it makes pivoting the car mid-air much easier due to the tyre mass.

micro diameter is around 58mm if i recall, and i think full fat touring diameter is around 65-66mm (someone can probably correct that last one!)
