I'm thinking about making the same change and have the same concerns you have. One more to mention is 'tramlining' - an increased tendency for the car to follow the contours of the road surface. Should corner better, brake better, get the power down better, possibly be a bit more noisy and I'd definitely get something that is regarded as being good in the wet. If you're in the snowbelt, I'd definitely want something stock size for winter.
