I have 205/55-16 Dunlop SP Sport 5000 on my 1998 900SET and they are great! Before this I had Yokohama AVS S-4 in 205/55-16, and before that the stock Michelin Pilot HX tires in 205/50-16. The difference between 205/50-16 and 205/55-16 is a bit smoother ride and less worry about potholes and rough railroad crossings. On my car the spedometer reads 3% low with the 205/55-16, which really isn't much of a bother (so at a real 62 MPH, the speedo says 60 MPH).
Of course then I added the SAS rear sway bar which removed a little of the smoother ride, but also removed most of the body roll.
