I can't turn my Nitro Rustler because the tires are never on the ground.
I'm thinking of putting bigger tires and lowering the gearing on my Nitro Rustler, to make it higher.Will the lower gears make it go slower.

Itll be slower on the top end. The bigger tires will also slow it down a little bit. But at least you will be able to turn. To trade speed for handling sounds like a fair trade to me.
 
The lower gears will just make you pop up more in acceleration, but maybe not at top end. Try braking (to get the nose down) into corners. I do agree with 4u2nv speed for handling is a good trade off.
