switching tire sizes

I got offered a *steal* on 205/60 16's for my 9-3SE. I have the OEM Pilots on there with 33k miles and they are almost slick. Can somebody comment on the handling impact if I were to use these 60 series tires. I was toying with upgrading to 205/55's anyway b/c my wife doesn't like the ride.
Here is my burning question: How much will performance be affected by going to a 60 profile tire from a 50 series? (I know that my spedo will be off by 6.7%)
