Question Help Decide Between 55's or 50's

I had a '90 Civic Si and went one size larger, same profile. It filled out the wheel wells nicely, made the car look less anemic and improved ride and cornering, but initial steering effort did increase. No rubbing, and speedometer and shift point issues were insignificant. But that was a '90 Civic Si and this is a '08 Fit Sport. I was wondering if you could speak to

1) Advantages
2) Disadvantages

of going from 195-55-15 to

1) 205-55-15
2) 205-50-15

Stock ride height, springs and shocks.
