Default Tall tires?

right now i am having porblems with my mustang. i have a high horse power mustang. with big rear gears, and the original c4. i expected cruising speeds to be around 60 mph with about 3,000 rpm. but it does 50 at 3,000 rpms. I have not ran it down at the track, because it feels like the trans needs a forth gear. but i was told that i could put taller tires on the car. how tall can i go? right now i have on the back P235/60r15 and yes they do fit. if you can help i will be delighted
