i think you will find the narrower tire will provide more comfort, be less costly to buy and be less sensitive to alignment and or worn parts issues.

i say go for it.

the ultra low profile tires are all about visual impact and profit for the tire mfgrs. possibly will raise skid pad results but real world difference is probably hard to notice.
