Anyway, the difference between 25mm and 28mm tires is not that large. Even if you could easily afford to swap over to 28s, I would recommend that you keep the 25s 'til they are worn out.
I spin my rear wheel heading up the drive to the highway every time I go for a ride and it really doesn't take much effort. On my MTB, I'm constantly spinning my rear wheel and it's much larger at 2.5" than the 25C I have on the road bike. It also has some serious knobs while the road is almost slick. I know I don't have unGodly strength. And I find it really hard to believe that you offended an administrator.
