Circumference of a circle: 2*pi*radius or pi*diameter (pi=3.14159...)
Traveled distance = number of revolutions * circumference of tire
To increase the distance you can either increase the number of revolutions or the circumference of the tire.
Ex:
Tire diameter = 1 meter => circumference = 3.14159 * 1 = 3.14159 meters
So if you drive from home to Wendy's and the wheel spins 1000 times totally it means that you've traveled a distance of: 3.14159 * 1000 = 3141.59 meters
