I guess you're talking about kde3? The size of the icons in the left sidebar is
hardcoded to "the size of the menu icons".

./trees/dirtree_module/dirtree_module.cpp:459:    int size = KGlobal::iconLoader()->currentSize( KIcon::Small );

If you wish kde4 to work differently please file a wish on http://bugs.kde.org if there isn't already one.
I guess it could be made separately configurable, for people who find small items too hard to read.
