Three things to point out:
1. Your speedometer and odometer will be off slightly but this can be corrected by having the car reset via Tech II to 205/55-16 (better) or if available to 195/65-15 tires (best).
2. The engine will be turning slower for any speed in any particular gear, this will cost you in acceleration albeit only by about 1.5 percent.
3. Also because the engine is turning slower at any particular speed/gear, you mileage should also improve by about the same virtually unnoticeable 1.5 percent.
