Not necessarily, there's a limit your car will do, wind resistance could mean you dont reach the limiter/your car might not quite have enough power to reach the limiter in 5th.

Oh and another thing you all have to consider is if you have bigger alloys? They will affect of your speedo! Tyre profile etc.
